Quinoa

  • Sweet potato and pomegranate salad. Sounds like me, huh?
  • Anne wrote a whole post about quinoa, with fun facts and recipes. For you readers who are thinking, quin-whaaa, definitely read this one! I made the cranberry and pecan version for lunch this week (pictured above).
  • Three different ways to make baked brie bites. This has holiday appetizer written all over it.
  • Cranberry sauce. Not from a jar.
  • 33 vegetarian Thanksgiving recipes that taste like real food, along with 44 vegan ones as well. I love that Greatist added “…and not tofurkey” to this post title.

What have you guys been reading this week? Share in the comments!

I also want to start sharing the things you guys send me throughout the week. I used to do this when I was posting Friday Favorites more often, so let’s make it happen again. I love seeing the things you’re reading, making, eating, doing for workouts, etc. Send them along to me via email or social media, and I’ll try my best to include/share in these posts.

Happy weekend!
