Tasty Thursday

Today has been a very tasty Thursday so I declare Thursday's, Tasty Thursday and everyone head over to the nearest Yogurtland and get some of this amazing pleasure in a cup!

I am so lovin' that yogurtland has Greek Style Yogurt with protein and all the fruit and granola toppings I like! saaahhhhh-wweeeeettt (in more ways than one ha). I blame it on my kids screaming Yogurtland! Yogurtland! Yogurtland! as soon as I picked them up from school today! I gave in, my kids won the battle, and we had a nice little after school snack! My cup with a tiny bit of Greek yogurt and a ton of fruit held me over as I drooled watched the kids eat their red velvet cupcake and new york cheesecake flavors with cheesecake and brownie bites!

 

Moving onto more Tasty Thursday treats! Tonight's dinner was an experimental dinner! My test subjects weren't too happy looking over the stove at the Quinoa cooking! This is the first time I cooked with quinoa and they were all freaked out about the "bird seeds" mommy was cooking! Test results..... it was a hit with my 12 year old and the husband but not so much with the 5 and 3 year old! It was a little too spicy for them so if you make this DELICIOUS creation you can add your own seasoning in place of mine if your kids aren't fond of spice like my littles! But I DO think it was GREAT! I LOOOOVVVVEEEEE all things spicy! Maybe because it was my first time cooking quinoa and I was scared it was going to be a disaster!! But if you would like to try it here it is! Try it! Try it!

 

1 cup of Quinoa

2 cups of low sodium chicken broth

1 teaspoon of Cumin

1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper

1/2 teaspoon of seasoned pepper

1 tbsp of minced garlic

Bring to a boil and simmer for 25 minutes
