  2. There is such a huge amount of information these days on foods that can help improve our diet and make us far healthier as a result. Quinoa is one such ingredient that has gained in popularity over the last few years as a food that can be good for you, yet really tasty too. But not all of us know how to cook with it. Luckily, the best home meal delivery service companies can really help. If you are looking for weight loss meal delivery UK wise — quinoa is likely to be one of the most common ingredients that are used.

Here, we look at the best quinoa recipes around at the moment, but also why quinoa is such a superfood, to begin with.

  3. Why is Quinoa a Superfood? Quinoa certainly packs a punch when it comes to its nutritional value. Despite its tiny size, this seed is high in fibre as well as antioxidants. It contains magnesium, B vitamins, vitamin E, iron, potassium, calcium and phosphorus. These are all nutrients and vitamins that our body needs to run optimally. Importantly, it contains all of the nine essential amino acids that can really help vegetarians and vegans improve their amino acid intake as amino acids are hard to find in plant-based sources. And, for those that struggle with gluten, quinoa is also gluten-free making a great accompaniment to many meals where pasta may have been used or another carbohydrate that usually is unsuitable for those with a gluten allergy or intolerance. It has a low GI number too meaning it releases energy slowly so it can help regulate your blood sugar.

  4. The Best Quinoa Recipes From Healthy Meal Delivery Services — UK Here are our picks for the best quinoa recipes to eat right now, available through the best home meal delivery services. 1.Beef koftas with squash & quinoa salad Proving that quinoa does not have to be saved for lighter, summertime dishes, this autumnal meal is packed full of flavour thanks to its tasty dressing. The beef koftas can be whipped up in no time and make use of your grill so you do not have to fry them. You keep the flavour therefore while keeping the calorie count down. Plus, with the inclusion of beef, you get a serious protein hit that will keep you fuller for longer, which is only improved with the use of squash and quinoa too. Both release energy slowly into your body so that you will not be delving into the biscuit tin just an hour or two after eating. 2. Chicken & quinoa Greek salad bowl with tzatziki Using quinoa as the base of this greek salad makes it suitable for those that want to bulk out their lighter lunches or dinners, yet still, keep the overall dish very healthy. Greek salad is fantastic for you thanks to the overload of tomatoes and cucumbers, both of which are chockablock full of vitamins and minerals to keep you healthy in the winter months. Tzatziki is a fantastic inclusion too as it is such a fresh sauce to eat on the side or with your food to enhance your dish. The chicken, like the beef in the beef kofta dish above, means that you up your protein intake again meaning this very healthy meal will keep you full all day long.

  5. 3. Sweet Potato & Quinoa Bowl with Kale, Red Pepper and Orange-Poppy Seed Dressing This dish is full of superfoods.

Kale, too, is a superfood that has so much calcium in it that it can be a fantastic source of the nutrient for those on a plant-based diet. The red pepper helps with any iron absorption, while the orange and poppy seed dressing brings the whole dish together in a zingy explosion. The result?
