Helping Australian families spend more of their time outside the kitchen this summer, Tilda® has introduced a series of scrumptious 30 minutes or less recipes that feature its recently launched Tilda® Steamed Basmati variants Brown Basmati & Quinoa and Garden Vegetable & Quinoa.

The new variants use natural ingredients combining all the goodness of wholegrain Basmati with the plant-based protein and light texture of quinoa, known for its nutritional benefits.

The Brown Basmati & Quinoa offers the delicious nutty flavour of the wholegrain basmati grain with bran layer intact combined with the light and slightly crunchy texture of yellow and red quinoa.

The Garden Vegetable & Quinoa features the same wholesome basmati goodness with red quinoa and a delicious mix of crunchy carrots, sweet butternut squash and a subtle hint of turmeric, ginger and coriander.

Commenting on the benefits of wholegrain basmati rice, Dr. Sarah Schenker, Tilda®'s clinical dietician explains, -Wholegrain Basmati rice contains complex carbohydrates that provide sustainable energy; and quinoa's extra protein compared with other grains is a valuable food option.'
