William Wallace, Defender of Scottish independence. Considering how small Scotland is, you may be a bit surprised to see how many historically significant roles have been played by famous Scots, but we're not! Apparently we're a very intelligent, resourceful, creative and dedicated group....hey've also been 'big' in the world of music, poetry, politics, sports, drama (the acting variety!) and much more. On this page you'll find a list of famous Scottish people in history, politics, and music/literature.
One cup of cooked quinoa (185 grams) provides 15% of the recommended daily intake of iron, and 5 grams of fiber, which is 21% the recommended amount. Quinoa is also an excellent source of magnesium, with 118 mg per cup, cooked.
Quinoa's known for its high protein content, and with good reason. The seed (yes, it's technically a seedânot a grain) contains eight grams of protein per cup. Plus, it's considered a complete protein, meaning it packs all nine essential amino acids your body needs. But it's definitely not the only grain stand-in out there that's loaded with protein. In fact, these five optionsâspelt, kamut, teff, amaranth, and sorghumâall contain even more protein than quinoa.
