Quinoa is the seed of a grain that is very versatile. When mixed with other ingredients it make can a delicious bread. As I discovered a few years ago. I have not made a quinoa loaf in such a long time that I felt like making it again. My husband gave me the idea of southern spices the other day and I have had quite a few ideas from it. All of the ideas I’ve had have been very tasty especially this one. Of course I had to share the recipe with you. Below is video and a recipe for you.

Southern Spice Quinoa Loaf was delicious. It was easy to prepare and cook. The bread is delicious with eggs and avocado or served with soups, stews and curries. It can also be made and frozen. All of the ingredients in this dish are freezable so you could make a big batch and freeze it for another occasion. It was also yummy as leftover the next day too. However you decide to eat this dish, as always, please enjoy. Thank you. xxx
