This is something that I make quite a bit for breakfast and really love. I can put it on the stove while I help the kids get ready for school. It’s pretty low-maintenance and delicious.
1/4-1/3 c uncooked quinoa
1 1/4 c unsweetened alternative milk/water/both
fresh fruit topping (I love any kind of berry)
2 T unsweetened coconut flakes
almonds/other nuts for crunch (optional)
salt to taste
cinnamon to taste
touch of maple syrup/honey for extra sweetness (I don’t usually add this because the fruit makes it sweet enough for me)
1. Bring quinoa, salt, cinnamon and liquid to a boil; reduce to a simmer and cook until liquid is absorbed.
2. Combine with coconut, nuts, sweetener, and top with fresh fruit.
