Are you trying to add more nutrition to your meals? Keeping nutritious grains like organic quinoa on hand is a great way to keep you creative in the kitchen. A delicious ancient grain, quinoa is the ideal whole food. Its mild, nutty taste means that you can easily add it to both savory and sweet dishes without drastically changing the flavor of the recipe. Use it as a base for a fresh summertime salad, add it to soup for extra texture, or use it as a nutrient-dense alternative to white rice. Quinoa is a complete source of protein and loaded with dietary fiber. Plus, it's vegan and gluten free, which makes it the perfect grain to use when cooking for those with dietary restrictions.

Despite its sweet flavor, honey can be added to nearly any cuisine, savory dishes included! From homemade granola to Indian-style curry, honey can boost the sweetness and body of a dish with just a few drops. Plus, when stored properly, honey can last for years. The ideal way to store honey is at room temperature in a cupboard or pantry shelf.
It's important to note that crystallization is a natural process of honey and does not mean the honey has gone bad. However, it does make it harder to scoop or pour from the jar. Keeping honey in the refrigerator will only speed up the crystallization process and is not recommended.
