Eating healthy, fiber-rich grains is a great way to improve your
diet. Not only are they delicious and good for you, but whole grains
also make you feel more satisfied and stick with you a lot longer.
Because they are more filling, you usually eat less than you would a
white, or refined, grain so you end up consuming fewer calories.
Your challenge this week: Try a new grain.
Here's a simple recipe to help you get started:
1/2
cup quinoa (be sure to rinse it well first, then cook it like you would
rice), 1/4 cup each avocado and tomato, 1/8 cup of black olives, and 2
TB of Gerards Greek Feta Dressing and only 195 calories! BIG bang for
your nutritional buck!

Eat your grains! Your body will love you for it! Have a GREAT week!
