Happy Sunday loves! Another week has passed and I was able to tick-offย everything I had on my to-do list until today – time to make one for the upcoming week. I’ve got a few lunch dates coming up this week with friends that I used to go to school withย – cannot wait! Since knowing myself, and knowing that one of these dates might be switched to becoming a dinner and drinks event, I need to make sure that everything else is rightly scheduled and done in time.
With anotherย weekend having passed, I wanted to share one of my new favourites in regards to breakfast. I love, love, love porridge – with them good old oats – and now started making it with quinoa. I always saw quinoa as a great grain for lunch or dinner, though never would have thought of eating it for breakfast/brunch. Here I am, and I could eat it daily. The principle method is easy – just as cooking quinoa (or rice) you can placeย ยฝ cup of quinoa, 1 cup of frozen berries and 1 cup of liquid in a pot – heat up the stove and let it sizzle on medium heat until no more liquids are left. I chose to say liquid as you can honestly make it with water (lowest kalorie form), milk (lactose free or not – as you wish and can eat) or nut milk. I’ve tried it in all ways, though usually go back to mixing ยฝ cup of almond milk with ยฝ cup of water. If you want to have your quinoa porridge a little sweeter and not so “nutty” in taste, you can add 1 tablespoon of agave syrup (or 1-2 tbs of sugar) and voila – you’ve got a perfect serving size (for one) to keep you full for hours.
With that, I wish you a lovely continuing Sunday! xo
