Guest Hosting "Cooking with Whole Foods (CWF) event

Hello friends,


Next 2 months, I am guest hosting CWF (Cooking with Whole Foods) event which has been started by Kiran. I am honored and excited to be hosting this wonderful and healthy event. Please check her blog for all wonderful delicious and healthy recipes she has posted. Thanks Kiran for letting me host this event. I owe you one :)


My STAR ingredient for this event is QUINOA. I have to admit that I did not even know about this one till I started my own blog and started following my blogger friends. My main inspiration to even try this ingredient was my blogger friend Priya. Please do check out her blog for n number of innovative recipes that she has tried and shared with us. Please do follow the link to Wikipedia above to know more about this grain. It is a very versatile grain and can be pretty much used anywhere where you would normally use rice or broken wheat or any such grain.
