Quinoa
Quinoa pronounced Keen-wa
Quin-what?! That’s the question that’s crossing many-a-mind as this gluten-free grain skyrockets into popularity. With its mild flavor, light crunch and impressive protein content, quinoa is the perfect gluten-free substitute for pasta, rice or couscous.
Quinoa is native to Bolivia and is a relative of Swiss chard, spinach and beets—bet you didn’t know that. What’s more, it’s a nutritional powerhouse. Just one cup contains 8g of protein, 5g of fiber, 15% DV iron, 30% DV magnesium, 19% DV folate and heart-healthy omega 3 fatty acids.
Quinoa is also a complete protein, which means it provides all nine essential amino acids necessary for good health, hence the name “essential.” Your body can’t produce these nutrients itself, so you have to get them frequently through food. Amino acids support strong muscles, keep our immune systems in tip-top shape and do lots of other stuff to keep our bodies healthy—thing is, not all plant-based proteins are created equal. Wheat, rice and most other grains are missing one or more essential amino acids, but quinoa is a one-stop shop. Nice, right? Suddenly the word “wholesome” takes on a whole new meaning.

I'm back...
I know it's been ages since my last post, but a lot has happened since then... I've had a baby... (yep that's the summary of it all). Babies are a blessing and they take up all of your time and they come with a lot of pounds, but I'm not complaining. 3boys after 4yrs of marriage is indeed a blessing and a full time job.
During the year I've discovered so many more healthy foods and their benefits and I can't wait to start sharing, but first I need to try it out for myself and share the results along the way, so stay tuned and lets stay healthy.
