Quinoa – not your grandma’s oatmeal.  This surprising little legume (no, not a grain) is incredibly versatile, nutrient dense, and making quite a splash on my breakfast table this fall!  This superfood is a complete protein (meaning it has a full complement of amino acids), and full of vitamins and minerals.  Usually used in soups, salads, as a substitute for rice, quinoa makes an excellent breakfast food.

So many things to love about summer...
Try this amazing watermelon salad I made a few weeks ago with my students in the wilderness!  It’s full of herbs that help detoxify the body and boost immune function.  The juxtaposing flavors create a symphony for the taste buds and help tame predispositions to food cravings.  Lastly, these colors are stunning and can help brighten the mood on a dull day.
