Is anyone here eating quinoa and has a good and easy recipe?

I made this last week, it's good

You may want to sprout the quinoa for 3 days and sprinkle it on your meal. If the raw taste is too strong you may wish to bake the sprouts for 5 minutes and include it on a high carb meal with some olive oil.

Sorry, l don't believe in recipes so l can't help with that.

Sprouting the quinoa is highly recommended for reasons far too extensive to be discussing here.

thanks




thanks I will try this

One of my favourite meals. Will fill me all day. A nice big milk shake consisting of:


* kelp mixed fermented rye sprout water

followed by a chaser of:

* sprouted chia seed milk
* coconut fat

How does that taste?

It doesn't look too great sorry

It tastes very plain like cardboard. But that is how l prefer my food. I avoid having food with lovely tasting flavours, the more boring the better! I don't believe in recipes, spices, flavourings and all of that. Most of my meals are far worse than that...the meal in the pic is my luxury meal.

[u]Breakfast[/b]

* sprout juice (1,000 ml)
* tomatoes







Lunch will be

* fermented sunflower seed sprout soup
* fermented brown seaweed
* fermented green hydrilla algae

Yes, everything is fermented today and this is the KING of the lunches. This lunch is pretty much as good as it gets and the nutrition king!

I'm curious, why do you avoid "lovely tasting flavours"?

Love this thread! So happy I`m not the only vegan here on fanforum

I´ll post some food later

Because it will become an attachment, and that will consequently block one from enlightenment. When one seeks the path of the Buddha one is supposed to give up all attachments. The Buddha School of Cultivation teaches this, but l practiced that idea years before l ever entered that school.

Being controlled by your taste buds makes it impossible to transend ordinary human behaviour and reach buddhahood due these temptations that lie before us. We are always controlled by what we like and what we don't like, so emotional sentimentality plays a heavy role in controlling our behaviour, but there are much higher level principles that we can live by which far transends the ordinary human preferences such as compassion when viewed froim a higher level. However when we are still focussed on emotional needs it makes it difficult to live by the higher level principles in the universe.

I'm pescatarian, does that count?

I have never seen one who eats any type of flesh as vegetarian. According to these definitions this agrees with my position.
Types of Vegetarian Diets | Levels of Vegetarianism

Personally l don't like any of the definitions and don't like the word vegan because l personally don't believe there is any such thing. Even `so called' vegans consume bacteria in the air and off food etc, so they still consume living beings like meat eaters do, but on a much less signifcant scale.

Vegans like to get on their high horse about not killing animals and using products that use animal products etc, yet they still use bike or car tyres which use animal products in them. Vegan ethics that are taught are really messed up and hippocritical. Under many circumstances it is o.k to wear leather, and sometimes it is o.k to wear fur, but under certain circumstances it is not. Rarely is it ever ethical to wear wool under proper vegan ethics unless the animal is carefully shaved of it's wool. Dairy is ethical only under certain conditions also, but never would commercial dairy be ethical. This is all vegan ethics taught at an everyday level, but when we talk about vegan ethics from a very high level it can be completely different again.

I don't really like using diet labels. I see myself as someone who just eats plant foods.
