Quinoa is a complete protein as it contains all the essential amino acids and is high in iron and calcium. It is also a good source of manganese, magnesium, copper and fiber. Be sure to soak quinoa before cooking. Parsley contains more Vitamin C than most vegetables and 3 x as much as oranges. It is high in Vitamin A and antioxidants. Peppermint is helpful in digestion and contains numerous minerals.
