This recipe was so good the kids asked for it two days in a row! In Autumn and at the change of season you may find yourself craving less food as digestion lowers. An alternative to rice is quinoa which is not a grain yet it’s so nutritious. Quinoa is a super food full of protein it has more calcium than milk and high fiber. Here is a great winter warmer using Quinoa.
