Botanically speaking Peanuts and just like their relatives, they also have a convincing protein content. At the same time, the kernel-shaped minis provide us with a good portion of vitamin E, a cell protector. If you have to avoid gluten, you can eat them without worrying about Quinoa reach for. But the pseudo cereal is also recommended for everyone else, because it strengthens the nerves thanks to magnesium.

The healthy quinoa bowl with tofu, spinach and carrots can be wonderfully modified and adapted to your own taste or the contents of the refrigerator: For example, you can replace quinoa well with millet or buckwheat and with the vegetables there are almost no limits to the imagination and season.
