Breakfast Quinoa

Picture





The Incas, who held the crop to be sacred, referred to quinoa as chisaya mama or 'mother of all grains'.  Quinoa stands alone as a complete protein grain.  It supplies all the essential amino acids in a balanced pattern.  A complex carbohydrate that is filling, it digests slowly for whatever the day has to offer.
