I LOVE to cook. Here, I will share recipes and ideas for delicious, healthy (and some unhealthy) recipes.

QUINOA RECIPES:


Quinoa Stuffing:

Cook quinoa as stated on box, use either vegetable or chicken broth

After it is cooked, stir in:

diced dried cranberries, chopped walnuts, pecans and almonds

We put this in halved and roasted acorn squash.
