Weekly Roundup: All Things Quinoa

Quinoa Patties

Quinoa is the perfect way to introduce whole grains into your diet, be it in salads, breakfast bowls, breads, and even paellas.  This week we’re rounding up a handful of our favorite classic and creative ways to add this pin-sized seed to your next meal.

  • Mini Quinoa Patties from Confessions of a Chocoholic are a meat-free standout that give everyday sliders some serious competition (pictured above).
  • Queen of Quinoa’s Maple Apple Quinoa Granola is flavored with dried apples, sunflower seeds, shredded coconut and chopped pecans for the ultimate gluten-free breakfast snack.
  • The Picky Eater’s Quinoa Vegetable Paella is spiced with smoked paprika and ground cumin for a whole grain twist on this Spanish favorite.
  • Make the most of your first meal of the day with Running in the Kitchen’s Berry Breakfast Grain Salad.
  • The Healthy Apple keeps it simple and fresh with Quinoa Spinach Bake.
  • Poor Girl Eats Wells kicks up a classic quick-bread with Carrot and Zucchini Quinoa Bread.
