PREPARATION

Quinoa:
Prepare one cup quinoa with 1/2 cup raisins and 1/4 cup dried cranberries. Cook together until water is absorbed by quinoa. Add 1/4 cup canned light coconut milk/cream, 1/2 tbsp maple syrup, 1/2 tbsp coconut sugar, and 1/2 tbsp cayenne. Mix well. Sprinkle a handful of fresh, minced mint leaves.

Beet Salad

I took both red and golden beets, cut the roots from the stems and wrapped the beets in tin foil and baked for an hour at 400 degrees. You will only need to cut up four or five cooked beets, 4 or five tomatoes, and roughly cut the beet leaves, and chop stems like celery. Toss together with some balsamic vinegar.

Serve together, chilled.

Delicious!
