My favorite Grain picks...
These are convenience foods that are wonderful options
when prep time is short. I do all my food prep on
Sundays, and I cook up a big batch of grains for the
week (currently my pick is quinoa), but when I don't get
to do all my prep, or life gets in the way, some of
these these
convenience packages are fantastic, and a much better
choice than a trip through the drive-thru!

Ready Made:

Grains: Currently, I make a
big batch of quinoa each Sunday, but I've been known to
do brown rice, a blend of wild & brown rice, kasha...
whatever strikes my fancy. My favorite right now is
buying the quinoa in bulk (red, black and white) then
mixing them together. I cook them (rinsing well first to
remove the bitter outer coating) in low-sodium chicken
broth instead of water. Awesome!

Pasta: My family just
doesn't like Whole Wheat pasta. But the Quinoa pasta
gets a full set of thumbs up! It looks like "regular"
pasta, tastes phenomenal, and is healthy!
