Quinoa is a type of edible seed that comes in various colors including white, red and black. Its also classified as naturally gluten-free and can be eaten safely if one has gluten intolerance such as celiac disease, and it is an excellent source of plant protein and fiber. One cup of cooked Quinoa provides about 8 grams of protein and 5 grams of fiber.

Quinoa also rich in:
• Manganese
• Phosphorus
• Magnesium
• Folate (vitamin B9)
• Thiamine (Vitamin B1)

Unlike some plant proteins, quinoa contains all 9 essential amino acids (our bodies cannot make on their own) making it a complete-protein source. Besides, pumpkin is a nutrient dense food and good source of fiber. Pumpkin is high in vitamins and minerals and yet has low calories per cup gram.
