sprouting squash and quinoa (KEEN-wah)


I had never cut open a squash to find several sprouted seeds inside, until today. It's currently roasting in the oven, mmmm.

And this is what Phillip and I had for lunch - it's organic quinoa (pronounced KEEN-wah), which is quite similar to couscous. I mixed mine with chopped tomato, olive oil, lemon juice, parsley and a bit of salt and pepper to make a sort of tabouli. Phillip had his plain, along with some sweet potato. It's a good source of protein, and has a nice, plain flavour. Delicious!
