Khyati's Health-O-Meter Says:

Quinoa noodles are healthier as they contain more fiber and more minerals than regular maida noodles. Quinoa is high in Riboflavin (B2). B2 improves energy metabolism. Since noodles are a favourite snack among children, noodles are a great way to get them to eat vegetables by adding them to the noodles dish.
