The best way to celebrate the summer is by feeding your soul with nutrients and quality time with friends and family! We recently got inspired to switch up our nutrition goals from Tabitha Brown’s latest book, Feeding The Soul (Because It’s My Business). We wanted to jazz up our food routine for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and the best way to do that is by getting inspired by inspirational leaders that give you joy! Once we read Tabitha's book, we got inspired to put our junk food away for a cleaner, enjoyable, and energetic summer full of creations!
For this recipe, we’re sharing a Slow Cooker Coconut Quinoa Curry from Simply Quinoa that recently hit the spot! As pattern designs, we often get busy with the day-to-day operations of creating meaningful designs. Using a slow cooker is definitely our style and it’s the perfect complement to a productive day!
