Ingredients:
1 cup uncooked quinoa
1 cup water
1 cup milk (preferably raw cow’s milk or homemade almond milk)
1/4 cup vanilla protein powder
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
2 cups frozen (or fresh) blueberries
1/3 cup almonds or pecans, chopped
maple syrup, for drizzling
Directions:
Rinse quinoa in a fine mesh colander to remove the saponins (we don’t want bitter tasting quinoa). Combine quinoa, water, milk, and cinnamon in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes (until most of the liquid has been absorbed).
Meanwhile, toast almonds or pecans in the toaster oven at 350 F for 5-6 minutes.
Remove quinoa from heat and let stand for an additional 5 minutes. Stir in blueberries and protein powder
Portion into bowls and garnish with nuts and a drizzle of maple syrup.
