During the ten days travelling through Oahu, Hawaii I didn’t have any quinoa. Quinoa makes a return to my diet tonight. What better way to enjoy quinoa than with roast Chicken Maryland.
Delicious roasted Chicken Maryland can be made better by cooking quinoa in the baking tray and incorporating the cooking juices from the chicken.

The chicken skin ends up being succulent and crispy. The meat is moist, juicy and tender. The dark chicken meat goes so well with some mayonnaise, it’s like having an open sandwich with shredded chicken meat.
The quinoa adds a lovely nuttiness to the kale coleslaw while the jalapeño pepper adds a real zing.
I was wondering when it would come back to your diet Australia’s Quinoa Ambassador.
I like quinoa, white and crunchy black. Haven’t tried red quinoa yet.
The local supermarket has a tricolour that includes white, black and red. It’s so pretty.
Hehe and quinoa is back!! How did you enjoy Hawaii Gary?
I loved Oahu Lorraine. Perfect weather, great food from food trucks and other places, Ted’s Bakery was good, good snorkeling and swimming and just so relaxing 🙂 I’d happily live there.
