Garden fresh

Planted in the earth months ago by human hands, now ripe and ready.

At the pinnacle of life, plucked, washed, and ready to be enjoyed.

Nature's bounty does not go unappreciated.

Quinoa

So in an ever growing quest to try new things, Dopey introduced me to Quinoa on her blog post about the best dinner ever that she made.

I'm not thinking about going full on vegetarian, but I am always looking for healthier alternatives to my current diet. So I thought I'd try this quinoa stuff out last night.....

I used spaghetti squash for my experimental dinner, along with a baked salmon. I put in a yam, green and red peppers, garden fresh garlic and onion, and a zucchini in a roasting pan with a vegetable broth.

And Dopey wasn't kidding, this stuff is good! Quinoa will be a new routine staple for me. Cheers!
