Quinoa is a fabulous food to include in your diet. It’s a great source of fiber at 5 gm per cup and it's higher in protein and micronutrients, when compared to other grains like brown rice!

1 cup quinoa provides: ⭐️ 8 gm protein

⭐️ 30% DV Magnesium ⭐️ 20% DV for Folate

⭐️ 39% DV for Copper

⭐️ 25% DV for Zinc

⭐️ 15% DV for Iron



Pretty fabulous huh?? The Mediterranean quinoa and kale is a simple and versatile way to add fiber, minerals, antioxidants, and protein to your meals. Add it to salads, make a grain bowl, or serve it alongside your favorite protein. Make this dish at the beginning of the week as part of a quick and easy ingredient prep. You can store it in the fridge for up to 7 days.


Now, get prepared to be amazed at how easy this is!
