Quinoa (pronouced "keen-wah") has been my current food obsession over the last few weeks. It's all over pinterest, side salads at restaurants, and magazines. I've made it a few times in the past, but lately I just can't get enough. It's so good for you. I'm never going to claim to be a nutritionist, all I can tell you is the stuff sticks to you and leaves you satisfied for hours. You can check out the real benefits here.
I wanted to share a few of the recipes that we've tried, but I've also been making extra and then adding it to a salad for lunch throughout the week for some extra protein. It can be expensive so if you are just going to give it a try, Trader Joe's has a 1 lb. bag for $3.99
ENJOY!
