instructions
- cook your quinoa. it's just like rice - 2 parts water, 1 part quinoa. rinse it well in a fine mesh strainer. combine water + quinoa in a saucepan and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer until all of the water is absorbed.
- measure out 1/2 cup cooked quinoa & place in a saucepan with 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk on low-medium heat until absorbed.
- combine cooked quinoa with granola and stir until combined.
- top with fresh berries, banana, 1 tbsp of greek yogurt, and a pinch of honey and cinnamon.
this is the perfect warm weather breakfast and my favorite sweet but healthy am option. i'm loving that fruit is coming back in season and spring is almost here!
