Summer is right around the corner, why not feel extra healthy form the inside out going into the season of bikinis before it’s here? Get a head start while still enjoying your favorite indian food from All India Cafe. Our newest addition to our Glendale menu is more than a mere entree… the possibilities are endless, and it’s truly as nutritious as it is delicious!
We can’t wait for you to try our new Tandoori Quinoa Salad, now available at All India Cafe in Glendale! This summer sensation is comprised of paneer and mushrooms atop of bed of Romaine, turmeric quinoa, cucumbers, and tomatoes, & finished off with our homemade dressing and your choice of protein: chicken, sea bass, salmon, shrimp, or Japanese eggplant.
A few reasons behind us choosing our star ingredient, quinoa:
a fantastic natural source of (vegan & vegetarian!) protein (twice that of rice!)
one of the few plants that contains all nine essential amino acids
a terrific source of magnesium, manganese, potassium, zinc, copper, folate, iron, & phosphorus
has more fiber than most grains
is over 10% of the RDA for vitamins B1, B2 & B6
is naturally gluten free
a low glycemic index food; great for blood sugar control
We cook our quinoa with turmeric for a warm flavor that is brimming with incredible health benefits. Turmeric is beloved not only for its richness and depth it naturally adds to our food, but also for its:
ability to improve brain function and lower risk of brain diseases
anti-inflammatory properties
antioxidant-rich effects
bioactive, medicinal compounds including Circumin
heart-healthy attributes
We are so grateful to our friends Larissa & Glenn Evans for capturing our Tandoori Quinoa Salad so beautifully!
