Raw Organic Tri-Colored Quinoa

Nestled in between the mystical Salar de Uyuni salt flats and the high peaks of the Andes Mountains are expansive multicolored fields of Quinoa.  This unique growing region lies nearly 12,000 feet above sea level, in a remote area that is perfectly suited for this demanding seed to flourish.  A steady dose of sunshine and relatively stable temperatures and humidity year-round, combine with the minerally rich soil to yield a seed that is exceptional for its size, flavor, and nutritional value.

Because of its proximity to the salt flats and the volcanic soil of the region, our Raw Organic Tricolor Quinoa is a good source of magnesium, phosphorus, and iron.  Quinoa is also a good source of fiber and contains a robust 5 grams of protein per serving along with trace amounts of potassium, zinc, and calcium.  While Quinoa is often used as a substitute for grains, it is in fact a seed making it gluten-free.

One of the more impressive qualities of Quinoa is its essential amino acid profile.  Because of the broad spectrum of amino acids present in Quinoa, it comes very close to matching the standards set by the FAO for human nutritional needs.

Ultimate SuperFoods Mesquite Pod Meal

Our USDA Organic, Kosher mesquite flour is made from the seedpods of the mesquite tree from Argentina and Peru. Ground mesquite powder taste like an aromatic blend of cinnamon, chocolate, and coffee.

For 2000 years, mesquite flour was a staple food of Native Americans from the Texas to California area, because mesquite trees thrive in arid climates where other crops wither. Mesquite pods were one of the most significant foods of the desert Apache, Pima, Cahuilla, Maricopa, Yuma, Mohave, and Hopi tribes. Like many other desert plants, the mesquite tree super concentrates nutrients in its seeds to compensate for the harsh environment.

Consequently, it is so nutritious and mineral-rich that many consider it a "superfood." Mesquite powder is very high in magnesium, potassium, iron, calcium, zinc, fiber, and digestible proteins (including lysine). It also acts as an antioxidant, and its glycemic index is low in spite of its sweet taste. It can be used as either a gluten-free flour or a superfood seasoning.
