Ingredients
- 1/2 cup uncooked quinoa with 1 cup filtered water
- 2 tbsp berries (any berries of your choice)
- Handful pumpkin seeds
- Dash of ground cinnamon
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 cup of almond milk
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
Instructions
- Follow instructions on your package or below
- 1. First, bring your water and quinoa to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 12-15 minutes.
- 2. Stir a few times during cooking. If mixture seems to be boiling out, crack the lid to release steam, otherwise, keep covered. Cook for 10-15 minutes, until liquid is absorbed. In the last few minutes of cooking, feel free to add a little more liquid (water is fine), until desired consistency is reached. If you prefer breakfast quinoa on the soft side, you can add enough to make it more of a porridge.
- 3. Once cooked, toss amount into a bowl and combine all your ingredients.
