| Portobello Mushrooms, Castilla Squash, Large garnet yams |
 |
| Castilla/Fairytale Squash..very large weighs about 6 pounds (some weigh 15 pounds) yet the skin is easier to cut than butternut squash, the flesh a glorious deep red-orange |
 |
| Easy to digest pearl barley |
 |
| White quinoa |
 |
| Couscous..actually a pasta not a grain |
 |
| Brown quinoa...all quinoa's contain a natural toxin that is removed by soaking in cold water for 20mins, drain & rinse then cook |
 |
| Chia Seeds...absorb 100 times their weight in water..great for weight loss as they keep you fuller, longer, Ancient South American natives took these into battle so they could fight for longer without getting hungry |
 |

 |
| The pumpkin peeled and diced, seeds and pith removed |
