Day 1 of 30: Gluten Free!

I started my gluten free month today and it's been pretty easy so far!  I know it will be challenging at some point, but today was great.  I had a super yummy lunch and Matt enjoyed it too!  I made a batch of quinoa.  It's super delicious!  Here's how I make my quinoa.  It's super easy! Super, super, super!Let's break it down:

1.  Use 1 cup of quinoa to 2 cups of liquid.  I used low sodium chicken broth.  You can use veggie broth too!

  2.  Combine the quinoa and liquid, and add any seasonings.  I use a lot of garlic and herb and a little garlic salt.  Go crazy and add whatever sounds good to you!

3.  Bring to a boil, cover and simmer for 15 minutes.  (Sometimes it needs a minute or two longer)

4.  Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes.

5.  Serve and eat!

The quinoa I made today is a combo of red and white.  I had red and bought white so I just mixed them together.  I can't taste a difference between the two.  Today, I ate some on it's own with roasted asparagus and also added some to my creamy tomato soup.  SO good!

Bon Appetit!
