Yoghurt-Curry Chicken Quinoa Bowls
Yoghurt-Curry Chicken Quinoa Bowls recipe shared by Nikki from MyNutriCounter. Quinoa isn’t a new food. For thousands of years it has been served as an integral staple of Inca’s diet. It seems it was the first civilization that embraced the crop. Incas preferred quinoa to corn and potato believing it gave power and endurance to their warriors. Quinoa was also used in ceremonies and was called “the mother grain” which gives you an idea of how important Quinoa was to their civilization. But in 16th century the situation changed. The Spanish arrived in South America and invaded the Incas. In an effort to fully eliminate Inca’s civilization they outlawed the use of quinoa and destroyed all the sowings. The use of quinoa had been forgotten for centuries. But since the 1970s there has been increasing interest to this ancient crop and for good reason!
