Wxed it all up really good okay and a lot of times what people do is they take the salad dressing and they just Dows their salad with it which is not healthy so the best way to make sure you are minimizing the calories and the sugars

Rainbow should not be to color candies so so in this pot we sauteed some shallot some garlic a little red onion some of my signature spice blend and then we put chicken stock in here on the website you guys have water but you can do chicken stock to give it more flavor
Or vegetable stock or broth or if you want more protein you can do a bone broth and so then we put the quinoa in and we let it simmer bring it to a boil let it simmer and then cover it and let it stand and quinoa is easy too Quin is
