Ingredients

1/2 c uncooked quinoa

1 c water

1/2 t cinnamon

pinch salt

1/2 c low fat milk or soy milk

1 apple, diced

1/2 c blueberries

2 T chopped nuts

Directions

In a saucepan combine quinoa, cinnamon, salt and water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 15 minutes or till most of the water has been absorbed.

Add milk and simmer uncovered for an additional 10 min.

Stir in apples, berries and nuts. Cover and let stand 10 minutes before serving.

experiment with different fruit/nut combinations

*Note: be sure to throughly rinse quinoa before using, rinse until there's no foam. Quinoa has a natural coating that's bitter and unpleasant tasting and needs rinsing before cooking**

Sounds very good! But to be honest, I am not sure what quinoa, is. I am a dummy about somethings, lol.

It's this awesome seed that's been around for ages that is a great source of protein. Just getting into these ancient seed/grains. I need to eat healthier in between stuffing in the high calorie sugar foods. At least I'm not bad ALL the time!
