Did you know quinoa is actually a seed not a grain? That makes this breakfast bowl an easy to digest way to start your day. Add this to your weekly meal prep by precooking the quinoa to have on hand for a quick and easy meal. Keep your gut happy by switching things up with your favorite fresh seasonal fruits, such as apples in the fall or strawberries in the spring.
Ingredients:
1 cup quinoa
1.25 cups water
1 cup non-dairy milk
Optional Toppings:
Dried fruit
Nuts
Nut Butters
Seeds
Apple-Cinnamon Mix
Directions:
Precook your quinoa by bringing water and well rinsed quinoa to a boil, lowering to a simmer until water has been absorbed. Cool and keep in refrigerator for the week.
When ready to eat, mix 1/2 cup non-dairy milk with 1/2 cup precooked quinoa, bring to a boil and then lower the heat to simmer for 2 minutes.
Top with any combination of nuts, seeds, spices or seasonal fruits to make this a filling warm breakfast.
