    This is perfect timing thank you Cara!
    I just picked up some red quinoia and had no idea how to give it flavor
    without having it taste so bland.

    Does anyone know how to sprout it, do you put it on a paper towel or on
    sprouting paper?

    Thx Cara, yum! Surprised Quinoa is from Goosefoot. I would like to know if
    you have created a raw bacon-like yummy?

    I just made this and used coarsely ground up soaked almonds that were
    soaking for a few hours instead of waiting to sprout quinoa. I also used
    cilantro instead of parsley and made a few other minor changes. It tasted
    great, and was quick to make! Thank you guys for reminding me of this dish
    :)

    I like to heat up or blend veges with spices to 18 degrees and then eat as
    soup. I live in freezing winter conditions in Toronto and our bodies crave
    warmth. Can you suggest any easy warm blender soups with more protein,
    such as legume/pea/bean/quinoa, as these usually need to be cooked longer
    than 18 degrees might allow. I love blender soups, but maybe I’ll have to
    use pre-cooked or canned beans?

      Some sort of corn chowder or potato bisque. I often have insomnia 🙁
      and look at recipes online when I don’t have the ingredients and my taste
      buds, bad time to peruse food! I found a potato bisque that looked so good.
      Wonder how to make a crab tasting bisque. There is some vegan way to make
      it taste sea food like as I can’t stomach knowing those poor crabs suffer
      anymore, used to eat lobster as a kid, never knew!
