  Palenque's Quinoa Arepas: A Signature Gastronomic Artifact for NYC Food Lovers At Palenque Brooklyn, we've crafted more than just food – we've created a distinct gastronomic artifact that redefines Colombian arepas for the modern era. Our Quinoa Arepas represent a culinary innovation where tradition meets conscious eating, establishing a new standard in NYC's food landscape as the ultimate gluten-free arepas New York foodies deserve. The Nutritional Power of Quinoa in Our Arepas Quinoa, the ancient Andean superfood, transforms our arepas into a nutrient-dense powerhouse. Packed with complete plant-based protein (all 9 essential amino acids), it supports muscle repair and sustained energy. Unlike traditional corn, quinoa offers double the fiber for digestive health, plus iron, magnesium, and B vitamins to combat fatigue. Its low glycemic index helps regulate blood sugar, while antioxidants boost immunity. Naturally gluten-free and rich in healthy fats, quinoa makes our arepas a smart choice for vegans, athletes, and health-conscious New Yorkers alike. Every bite delivers 15% of your daily protein needs – proof that superfoods can be delicious too!
