ingredient fact from menu.

Quinoa:
as seen in our clean grain bowls & last week's quinoa, cherry, goat cheese & steak salad.

This superfood is one of the most protein rich foods we can eat!!!  It is considered the "mother of all grains" by the Incas.  Quinoa is considered a grain but is part of the leafy family of vegetables.  This gluten free grain is a complete protein, meaning that it has all nine essential amino acids.  It has about twice the fiber of other grains and is rich in other nutrients such as magnesium, lysine, B2 and manganese. 

BEYOND exercise.

1. fat loss

Picture
now that you've gotten to know all about us [tarin + jess], tune in as we find out how much we know about each other. we were each given a list of questions to complete. once we submitted our answers, we were given that very same list about one another and asked to fill in the blanks. we think that we'll even surprise ourselves with how much we know [or don't know!] about each other.

so first up - here's tarin, trying to fill in the blanks on the questions that jess answered. good luck, tarin!

we asked jess - what is your favorite fruit?
tarin guessed - cherries.
jess's answer - watermelon. [so close, tarin! at least those two fruits are the same color.]

we asked jess - how do you re-energize after a long day?
tarin guessed -  a run or a walk; being outside.
jess's answer - if it's a bad long day, a run to relieve stress [you got it right, tarin!] good long day - hang out with my friends/boyfriend [wine is most likely present].

we asked jess - are you a beer snob or a wine connoisseur?
tarin guessed - wine connoisseur!
jess's answer - wino - but definitely not a connoisseur. [point, tarin!]

we asked jess - what brand of workout clothes is your favorite?
tarin guessed - lululemon.
jess's answer - lululemon! [tarin, you're on a roll!] and i really like saucony running shoes.

we asked jess -  what is your favorite memory from high school?
tarin guessed - being a senior on the varsity soccer team.
jess's answer - graduating in front of my class with my entire family present during a special day ceremony because we missed the actual commencement ceremony to play in the state soccer tournament. [tarin, we're giving this one to you - you got the gist!]

stay tuned for next week's post when we'll reveal how much jess knows about tarin!
