Not only is quinoa high in protein, but the protein it supplies is complete protein, meaning that it includes all nine essential amino acids. Not only is quinoa's amino acid profile well balanced, making it a good choice for vegans concerned about adequate protein intake, but quinoa is especially well-endowed with the amino acid lysine, which is essential for tissue growth and repair. In addition to protein, quinoa features a host of other health-building nutrients. Because quinoa is a very good source of manganese as well as a good source of magnesium, iron, copper and phosphorus, this "grain" may be especially valuable for persons with migraine headaches, diabetes and atherosclerosis. <br /><a href="http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid=142">Source: The World's Healthiest Foods<br /></a>beyond pots and panshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16010059832362448927noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2431332916327097051.post-42828436016499945142009-07-27T15:26:00.000-07:002009-07-27T16:05:44.213-07:00Quinoa Salad with Arugula, Balsamic Syrup & Scallion Oil1 c. quinoa, rinsed and drained<br />2 c. vegetable stock<br />1/4 c. onion, minced<br />1 zucchini, diced<br />1 yellow squash, diced<br />1 green bell pepper, diced<br />1 carrot, diced<br />1 bunch arugula, washed<br />1 bay leaf<br />1 tsp. pepper<br />2 tsp. salt<br />Balsamic Syrup<br />scallion oil<br /><br />Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
