Roland quinoa, along with polenta and rice, is on sale from Amazon.com. Throughout the month of March, select Roland products are 15% off with the coupon code ROLAN655. You'll save an addi ...

My very smart veteran vegetarian sister tried to get me into Quinoa (pronounced “keen-wah”) a couple of years ago but I guess I just wasn’t ready …because I ignored her.
But the recent shortage of organic brown rice in Australia and a huge promotion of Quinoa in the Body Ecology Diet has pushed me into experimenting with this grain over the la ...

Over the summer my family and I were visiting my sister who happens to be a vegetarian.

That grain is quinoa – pronounced kee ...

Quinoa: The Mother of All Grains for a Gluten-Free Rice Alternative

I don’t know about you, but all this news about arsenic in rice is a bummer for this gluten-free green diva! I LOVE rice, and it is the basis of most of the grain alternatives I’ve turned to to avoid gluten – ugh. Now, I realize that not ALL rice is laden with arsenic, but this is all a good lesson in not relying heavily on any one type of ...

There are a lot of things in the kitchen I just don’t do the right way.
I’ve already showed you how not to cut a mango. And even though I know how I should do it.
I don’t.
You should probably NOT follow my method when it comes to spaghetti squash either: poking holes in it and baking it like a potato greatly increases the occure ...
