Here's an example of one of the awesome recipes.


Mint Quinoa

IIC Chef: Penelope Purdy

Ingredients:

16 oz. organic quinoa (Inca grain)

5 tablespoons organic extra virgin olive oil

Half cup fresh mint

1 cup nuts (pine or chopped almonds best)

Cooked vegies (I used carrots & peas, but others also good)

Mix in with cooked grain.

Directions:

Cook quinoa per package directions, usually 1.25 cups water to 1 cup grain; takes about 15 minutes at Denver’s altitude, 12 at sea level

Once grain is cooked add in the olive oil, mint, nuts, and cooked veggies.

Simple. tasty. good for the body.

Yum!
