your next mission:
TOTALLY GRANULAR High in fibre, vitamins and minerals, there’s so much to be gained from grains. Health benefits aside, they also bring a variety of flavours and versatility to the table. So it’s no wonder why grains are on food lovers’ radars as a hot trend for 2015. This week, your mission is to get seriously granular about grains. Whether its rice, farro, wheatberry, quinoa, whole wheat, bulgur or you’re simply enjoying a cold beer, we want you to get into the grain.
Mission Inspiration
Mila Schneider @milaschneider12 Toast done right! Eziekel bread toasted with avocados and a soft fried egg
Sara Verk @thekitchensinkblog Building a fire in the living room fireplace for this camping favourite: s’mores
Canan Acar @cananacar Toasted Italian bread with goat cheese, stuffed queens, mozzarella and feta
Gastroposter Linda Matarasso is totally game for grains, especially this quinoa salad from Whole Foods. “It has a balance of both sweet and savoury with edamame, mango and raisins,” Linda says, going on to further praise grains. “You can eat it hot or cold, and it keeps well in the fridge so you can make ahead for a few days.”
gastropost it Keanu Francisco @imnotcaillou Toasted multigrain tortilla chips with tandoori chicken, sausages and jalapenos
