Quinoa

This Peruvian super grain sounds a lot more exotic than it tastes! That makes it an easy addition that adds texture to chili, salad, and other dishes or an easy replacement for rice for folks who need to add a ton of fiber to their diet. It’s got all nine essential amino acids. Of course, it’s also got minerals and antioxidants. It’s an ideal choice for regulating your cholesterol levels, blood sugar levels, weight, and blood pressure. You know what? Cancel the list. We’ve peaked with quinoa.

Spinach

Just kidding! Don’t cancel the list, we’ve got more superfoods to cover. Less than a handful of spinach will give you five times your daily dose of vitamin K. Spinach keeps your bones strong and lowers the chance of blood clots. Like quinoa, it can go in salad, the right soup or stew, and mixes well with pasta. If you cannot make it past the bitter taste of spinach, try blending it with some garlic and pepper to make an incredible pasta sauce.
