Quinoa is one of my most consumed foods because it is a complete protein with 9 amino acids that other grains do not have. It has Omega 3’s that are essential to overall health along with B2 vitamins that help the body metabolize the fats and protein. It contains twice as much fiber as most grains too with a low fat to calorie ratio. And it has a subtle nutty taste that pairs well with all types of flavors both savory and sweet. Along with Greek yogurt, blueberries and bananas, this parfait is the ultimate healthy breakfast or dessert.
