I'll never give up dessert!


I don't really miss sweets like I thought I would as I dove head first into nutritarian eating.  But I will never give up dessert altogether.  Not when there are so many nutritious choices.  One of my favorite quick desserts is my Quinoa Maple Pudding.  I recently discovered quinoa flakes at the Grain Train food co-op.  They cook in simmering water in only 90 seconds.  Add a pinch of sea salt and a spoonful of pure maple syrup and you have a two minute dessert with low glycemic carbohydrates, high quality protein, fiber and minerals.  The carb calories are there so I keep the portion small.
