Food Spotlight - Quinoa

Quinoa. Have you heard of it? I just started researching this for the Mommy and Me fitness blog.
(Check out the full post with health benefits and how to cook it by clicking here.)

This little super food is now a staple in my kitchen pantry.



I served it with a family favorite Lemon-Honey Chicken. Here's the recipe:




Lemon Honey Chicken
1/2 c. oil
1/2 c. honey
2 egg yolks, slightly beaten.
4 T. lemon juice
4 T. soy sauce
1/4 t. nutmeg (I just put in a pinch)
2 t. paprika
2-3 pounds of chick cut up in bite size pieces

Season chick with salt and pepper. Place in 9x13 baking dish. combine all sauce ingredients and pour over chick. Bake about 1 hour. (about 50 minutes). Serve over cooked brown rice or QUINOA!
Super easy.
Super tender.
Super tasty!
