Excuse the sarcasm in my title but I really think nearly half of the blog is food-related. However, I discovered another healthy food that knocked my socks off this Sunday - quinoa. What is quinoa, you ask? Here is what wikipedia has to say about it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinoa
I went to this AMAZING burger place Sunday afternoon in La Jolla called Burger Lounge (http://www.burgerlounge.com/). I figured I would be adventurous so I ordered the veggie burger, made with organic quinoa. Before I even rant about quinoa, let me just say that I am skeptical that this burger was actually healthy because it was sooo good. I mean, I've had veggie burgers before but this knocked my socks off. Burger Lounge makes it with other ingriedients including mushrooms and zucchini (I'll have to check the info packet I have) and I think my goal is to come up with a clone of the veggie burger.
So I am still learning about quinoa and will be experimenting with recipes for quinoa burgers. Please chime in if you have suggestions.
