SPECIAL GRAINS
We've got several grains and
many products in different sections. Frequently we are asked, "What can I
eat if I'm allergic to wheat?"
And, then we should
ALL be looking for those whole grain foods, which offer such hearty and
delicious alternatives to the bland, totally processed white flour products!
The special grains
throughout our catalog are:
Quinoa
Spelt
Brown Rice

What is Quinoa? Pronounced "keenwah," this rice-like grain originated high
in the Andes in South America. It's high in protein, calcium and iron, and
it's perfect as a side dish in any gourmet meal. You can use it instead of
rice and add your own creative ingredients. If you'd like more information, we'd be happy to send you details and recipes! |
