Spicy Quinoa Recipe
by Scott Tousignant · Filed Under: Nutrition

Angie and I have been experimenting with a variety of quinoa recipes lately and absolutely loving it! It’s a great alternative to brown or basmati rice and oats, which are staples in my diet. One of the big benefits is that it’s gluten free, which is great for our fellow Fat Loss Quickie friends who have an intolerance or allergy to gluten.
Here are the ingredients in this recipe that Angie created recently:
1 cup Quinoa
2 cups vegetable broth
1 cup chopped onion
4 garlic cloves
2 Tsp crushed chillies
1 Tsp cumin
1 Tsp black pepper
1 Tsp red pepper flakes
1 cup frozen corn
1/2 cup cilantro
Directions:
Soak quinoa for 3-5 minutes, then rinse.
Bring quinoa, vegetable broth, crushed chillies, cumin, and black pepper to a boil. Then simmer for 30 minutes.
While the quinoa is simmering, fry up the onion and garlic in a little bit of olive oil.
After 30 minutes, add the onion-garlic mix, the corn, and cilantro to the quinoa and let simmer for 5 minutes.
That’s it… Enjoy!

Of course, you don’t need to add the corn and you can cook it in water instead of vegetable broth if you wish.

Several months ago I informed my valued Fat Loss Quickie blog readers that I had just received my first order of Full Strength, which was a 14 day trial containing 7 packages of vanilla powder, 7 packages of chocolate powder, the best darn protein shaker that I’ve ever used, and an awesome t-shirt.

There’s absolutely no doubt that your diet is largely responsible for your fat loss results. Some would argue that diet is 80% of the battle, while others would say it’s even as high as 90%. Although we understand the significant impact that diet has on our body composition, some people choose to rely on guess work to arrive at their fat loss destination. They guess what they should be eating to lose fat and guess how many calories are in the foods that they choose to eat. This can be a very stressful part of your every day life.
