QUINOA • TOFU ⁣

Have your kids tried quinoa? As quinoa is a good source of fibre, high in protein and contains all essentials amino acids which support the growth and development for toddlers so i like to serve quinoa to my little one when i don’t have much time to prepare a dinner.⁣

Today I served quinoa with tofu and veggies to my little one and she loved it. You can serve quinoa with any choice of your favourite meats.⁣
