Breakfast Quinoa

So, with this new lifestyle you eat a lot of protein but you don't want to keep eating the same things everyday. We've been having eggs very often so I thought I'd create a  breakfast quinoa. Quinoa (keen-wah) is a grain that is high protein and can be found in the health food isle of your grocery store or ordered from Amazon. I have two different versions because I made mine differently than my husband's.

Quinoa

1c. Quinoa
2c. Water
1tsp. vanilla extract

1. Bring all to a boil and reduce to a simmer for about 15 minutes until all the liquid is absorbed.

Makes about 3 bowls of quinoa.

For one bowl of Banana Breakfast Quinoa:

1c. cooked quinoa
1/2 large banana
small handful of sliced almonds
a pinch or two of cinnamon
and drizzle some pure maple syrup over the top

1. Mix all of the above and enjoy.

For one bowl of Blueberry Breakfast Quinoa:

1c. cooked quinoa
1/4c. fresh blueberries
small handful of sliced almonds
a pinch or two of cinnamon
and drizzle some honey over the top

1. Mix all the ingredients and enjoy.

I loved my banana one. So good! I'll definitely have this again!
