Quinoa Breakfast Bowl
Uuuuggghhh….Who else woke up a bit groggy & headachy this morning? I certainly did. Too much indulgence & Vegan Vine Wine. It was worth it at the time, but I needed a nourishing breakfast to get my lazy morning started on the right foot!
I took inspiration from this 101 Cookbooks recipe, using left over Thanksgiving toasted pecans & dried tart cherries…
And made this lovely bowl…
“Quinoa Breakfast Bowl with Tart Cherries & Toasted Pecans”
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup organic quinoa, rinses
- 1 cup dried tart cherries
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans, toasted
- Drizzle of agave nectar
- Combine almond milk, water & quinoa in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover & simmer 15 minutes or until most of the liquid is absorbed. Turn off heat; let stand covered 5 minutes. Stir in cherries & cinnamon; transfer to 2 bowls & top with pecans. Drizzle agave nectar over each serving. Serves 2.
Enjoy!
