Not sure what to do with that Quiona you picked up at the health-food store on a whim?
I certainly spent some time researching its uses! My most successful to date is this hot and tasty wheat-free breakfast that’s sure to keep you satisfied. Plus, quinoa is a rare source of ‘complete protein’ which means its great for your body and mind. Period.
Satisfying, hot and rich?! Who knew quinoa could sound so tempting!
