Gluten Free Delicious Quinoa Bread
This is a delicious bread with no eggs, so easy to digest and vegan if you omit the honey and replace the ghee with coconut oil.
The quinoa – officially a seed, gives you some protein, which will make this a more filling bread than just a plain flour loaf.
Have it toasted with some humous, almond/cashew butter or just some olive oil, a little balsamic vinegar and a pinch of crunchy sea salt. Delicious!

2 cups quinoa
3⁄4 cups chia seeds
1⁄2 cup mixed seeds (pumpkin, flax, sunflower or just one of these) 3 tbsp lemon juice
