Ever since I learned how America’s sudden obsession with quinoa is hurting South American families who used to rely on this little-known high-protein grain (just two of many articles here and here), I’ve avoided buying it . I know it’s just a drop in the bucket kinda thing, but it’s a drop I’m responsible for. Anyway, I thought this post was really interesting an helpful on how to grow and prepare your own quinoa. It’s actually a pretty plant!

I am SO glad you posted this.
I have a friend who is transitioning into a real-food diet and she is concerned! I didn’t know Dr Price mentioned this, but I told her I believed as long as 80% of what she ate was nutritious and satisfying, she would be ok!!! Now I will share this post with her and we will both be encouraged – THANK YOU!
Thanks for hosting! I shared an article on why we should eat ALL types of fats, not just saturated. They all have a bit of good to offer!
Thank you for hosting Rachel! I shared Toasted Coconut Chai Macaroons with a quick how-to video on how easy it is to make them. They’re super healthy and tasty and perfect for snacking when you don’t want to feel guilty about snacking! 🙂 Have a really good rest of the week!
Rachel thanks for the invite and thanks for hosting this!
