Warm Breakfast Quinoa (“KEEN wa”)
Adapted from 101Cookbooks.com
Ingredients
1 c water
1 c milk of choice (dairy,
almond, soy)
1 c quinoa
Toppings: cinnamon, real maple
syrup, agave, berries, nuts, seeds, dry fruit, granola, etc.
Directions
Add water, milk and quinoa to a
large saucepan, preferably a wide shallow pan with sides but a pot will do.
Bring to boil then reduce heat, cover and simmer for 12-15 minutes. All the
liquid will absorb so keep an eye on it so it doesn’t burn.
Once liquid is absorbed remove
from heat and let sit, covered, for 5 minutes. To serve, top
with fruit, nuts and seeds, and a little sweetener of your choice.
I usually have this warmed, but
it’s good cold. This dish makes great leftovers, so cook it up on a Sunday for
quick, healthy breakfasts all week! My favorite topping combo is cinnamon,
blueberries, chia seed, pumpkin seeds, pecans and a drizzle of real maple
syrup.
