Mexican Quinoa Salad

February 1, 2018 By Garden Fresh Foodie

Mexican Quinoa Salad

This quinoa salad kicks up the heat and is packed with protein, fiber, and lots of micronutrients! Add in the greens, and you’ll add in additional fiber, protein, and calcium.  I always try to get those greens in! One tip, I presoak my quinoa, as I find it cooks better, is easier to digest, and…

Carrot Ginger Dressing

April 29, 2016 By Garden Fresh Foodie

Carrot Ginger OIl Free Dressing

Most store bought dressings have long lists of chemical-laden words.  It would be VERY rare to find a dressing that has whole food ingredients in it, that would contain as many antioxidants as this dressing.
