Quinoa Crispy Treats

Feb 18, 2012 | Wendy Polisi

February 18, 2012

A few weeks ago on a Whole Foods shopping extravaganza, something caught my eye in the bulk section. Strangely, it wasn’t a baby (that left me realizing just how big my boys are getting) or even a really cute guy (whom I’m almost old enough to be his mother, making me realize how old I’m [...]

Cinnamon Quinoa Bites

January 12, 2012

Anyone who knows me knows I stress a bit about what my boys eat. I’ve struggled with my weight for most of my adult life thanks to unhealthy eating habits I learned as a child. I KNOW so much about how to eat, I like to cook, I really don’t have a huge appetite, yet [...]

As soon as Christmas is over, the first thing my mind goes to are plans for the New Year. Although I am the first to admit that I haven’t really ironed out what my goals are for next year, one thing I am clear on is that I need to refocus myself on eating healthy, [...]

Today, I have a real treat for you – quinoa cake doughnuts! I bet you can’t guess who this recipe was made for? Yep…the boys! It all started over the summer when my husband would take the boys to a certain popular coffee spot for cake pops and cake doughnuts. One day, he bought four [...]

Quinoa Cookies

October 31, 2011

I know the timing of these quinoa cookies may not be ideal, since many of you have more sugar in your house than you need right now, but stick with me on this one. I don’t know about your children, but my boys always get way more candy than they need around Halloween. In [...]

Quinoa Chocolate Cake

Aug 8, 2011 | Wendy Polisi

August 8, 2011

I had heard a lot about the quinoa chocolate cake recipe in Quinoa 365, but up until now I had never given it a try. You all know that I am not that big on sweets to start with. On top of that, while I really like Quinoa 365, some of the recipes are just [...]

Nutty & Decadent Quinoa Bars

July 9, 2011

I almost hesitate to post this quinoa bars recipe. Not because it isn’t amazing. It is. In fact, it may be one of my favorite recipes on the entire site. The reason I hesitate to post it is because it is quite a bit indulgent. Invariably, when I post recipes with butter and/or sugar (even [...]

I’m celebrating the launch of the book by sharing the cake balls recipe my boys and I made. Sweets are not normally my thing, but some how celebrating with my boys demanded a treat. Don’t they look festive? I started on Sunday by baking a small cake. Now that I’ve been a vegetarian for almost [...]

March 11, 2011

Whew! Another week has flown by. It has been an insanely busy week for me because I am really pushing to meet my self imposed deadline of having my first complete quinoa cookbook finished by April 10. It is going to be all new quinoa recipes that are not on the website. The job of [...]
