#NationalNutritionWeek

To celebrate this week I would like to emphasize the importance of being 'nutrition smart' in our families. This is possible only by mass awareness. We all need to know how nutrient rich is our food. The recipe I have chosen today has Quinoa which is one of the most nutrient rich ingredient. It is unique because it contains all 9 amino acids that are essential for our wellbeing.

I have made this quinoa upma that is healthy as well as delicious if cooked with available veggies. It is a one pot quick recipe.
