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!
