no carbs for mom

due to mom's high bad cholesterol level reading (after her health screen test), endocrinologist doctor advised her to avoid carbohydrates on her diet. one of those is her rice consumption... whether it is white or brown or red or organic rice, it doesn't change its carb content. and she needs to normalize her cholesterol to strengthen her immune system.

so we are switching from rice to quinoa. yes quinoa! for those who don't know quinoa it is a kind of grains that is gluten free, no carbs, but protein. real health concious individual eats quinoa. as far as i knew previously, i only heard and see quinoa by watching the food network channel, were celebrity chefs uses quinoa in some of its dishes...

so there, i headed to one of my fave organic store, which is this one is located in harbourfront centre and bought 2 bags of quinoa (500g each)

and cook mom her quinoa to replace her rice. i even added drops of organic mushroom sauce and mixed veggies to make it more appetizing.

look how she enjoys it! bon appetit! thank you Lord!
