The steel-cut oats remain crunchy and never get mushy like regular rolled oats, and the quinoa brings a boost of protein, fibre and a unique taste. Feel free to use whatever kind of low-fat milk product you like, I choose soy but regular will do!

I can't wait to try this. I make almost the identical recipe often for breakfast less the quinoa. I would have never thought to add it but I am sure it adds an interesting texture and nuttiness to the dish. Thanks!

Could you use regular oats? In a small town the store only carries a few brands. It look delicious.


Unfortunately regular oatmeal will go all mushy in this recipe... you can try with the large-flake kind that takes a while to cook though! Hope your market starts carrying the steel-cut soon.
