Salad with quinoa, beets, and mushrooms

YOU ARE WHAT YOU BEET

Quinoa, beets, shredded carrots, grilled asparagus, chickpeas, hearts of palm, and white mushrooms. Topped with sunflower seeds.

BEETS are another superfood. They are a good source of folate, magnesium, vitamin C, and fiber, but what makes them really special are betalains, betaine, and nitrates for their positive effects on oxidative stress, inflamation, cardivascular health, and cognition.

QUINOA is one of the healthiest and most nutritious foods on the planet. Rich in fiber, minerals, antioxidants and all nine essential amino acids, it may improve your blood sugar and cholesterol levels and even aid weight loss.
