I've been making this awesome nut roast regularly throughout the Summer. Quick and easy to prepare, it's packed full of protein from the quinoa and the nuts and the butternut squash and carrots give it a subtle sweetness as well as a lovely warm, orangey tinge.
Gillian McKeith's TV programme "You Are What You Eat" introduced me to quinoa a few years ago. The Incas called it the "mother grain". Its high in protein, calcium, magnesium and iron and is a reasonable source of vitamin E and B vitamins. It makes a lovely alternative to rice and is quick to prepare.
