Pereg is perfect

If you are looking for a great quinoa with a kick of spice, try Pereg Quinoa. I made this recently for a dinner party I was having and it was a hit! I knew my guests were interested in eating healthy, trying something new and Pereg Southern Style was the perfect item to serve. I combine this with a salad, and some spicy chicken sausage, but other combinations might include, chicken, beef, beans, or veggies. I love the simple, spicy and savory flavor in which this has. I am a big fan of quinoa normally, but this added flavor helps to encompass the entire flavor of a meal and make it more exciting. 
And with the leftovers I had I made a salad the next day, which was just as tasty. The flavors of lettuce, chick peas and quinoa made a terrific meal and I didn't even need to add salad dressing, which really helped to cut down on calories. Pereg has many flavors, so pick some out at your local grocery store, or visit http://www.pereg-spices.com/ to see where this is sold near you.

Gluten Free Pasta, yum yum yum

I cannot be more pleased with a pasta-Ancient Harvest is fantastic! I recently made a delicious pasta dish using elbow pasta, vegetarian marinara sauce and a Gluten-Free turkey burger. Making your favorite recipes is easy and I find that it can be a painless and simple process, leaving you to feel no sense of awkwardness when dining with Gluten eaters. Sometimes it becomes hard to go to parties, friends and families without feeling like you cannot eat a regular meal, but Ancient Harvest makes cooking and eating completely delicious and enjoyable. I have never felt so good after eating pasta, like I do after eating Ancient Harvest. 
And, not only is this pasta delicious and Gluten-Free, but it is extremely low in calories and fat. Over the past 10 years, the low-carb fad has been a serious talk, especially pasta is something people tend to stray from......but with Ancient Harvest, you don't have to do that. You can enjoy a large portion of this pasta without feeling guilty! Tasty, low-cal, healthy and simple delicious, what more could you ask for?
