@sophiemorrisofficial: A high protein and high fibre swap from microwave rice! I just found this cooked white and red quinoa mix in Lidl, and I think it’s a brilliant convenience option! Quinoa is one of my favourite grains (it’s technically a seed, but most people consider it as a grain!) because it’s very high in fibre and a great source of plant protein, plus it’s so versatile. I use it in salads, alongside roasted veg, I even have it with meatballs or curries sometimes instead of rice because it absorbs flavours really nicely! It’s going to be a lot cheaper to cook quinoa from scratch but sometimes we need some convenience and so I think this is a great convenient option to have on our shelves - it contains two types quinoa, white (80%) and red (19%), then just olive oil—nothing else and no unnecessary additives 👌 Per half a pack, you get: ✅ 7g of fibre (which is really high!) ✅ Nearly 8g of protein But depending on what you’re having it with, you could easily have the whole pouch in which case you’d be getting 14g of fibre and 16g of protein which is brilliant 🙌 Quick Tip: If you’re heating this up, avoid microwaving it in the plastic pouch—instead, transfer it to a glass or ceramic bowl first as heating any food in plastic in the microwave isn’t great. Such a great little find in Lidl—have you tried it?! Let me know what you think! 👇🍚 #sophiesswaps #cleverswaps #realfood
