Lunch...

Whole Foods is Ruining Me...uhm, too...
Funny that quinoa salad is what I eat for lunch
and then I read this blog post
of a fellow Whole Foods addict.

SO...what is quinoa (KEEN-WAH)? Besides just YUMMY!

Quinoa is 100% whole grain and is close to being a perfect
food source in the balance of nutrition it provides. Technically it's
not a grain but the seed of a leafy plant related to spinach.
Quinoa is an excellent source of protein - 12% to 18%.
according to The National Academy of Sciences, quinoa
is "one of the best sources of protein in the vegetable kingdom".
Quinoa contains the amino acid lysine which helps the body
produce protein. It also helps the body process the protein in the
quinoa and in other foods. The World Health Organization has
rated the quality of protein in quinoa to be equivalent
or superior to that found in milk products.
