A warm, comforting breakfast that provides complex carbs for sustained energy and natural sweetness (serves one).
Ingredients:
- 100g cooked quinoa
- 250ml almond milk
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
Instructions:
- Spoon the porridge into a bowl and serve warm. Top with chopped nuts or fresh fruit such as berries or banana slices for added texture and nutrients.
- In a medium saucepan, add the cooked quinoa, almond milk, cinnamon, honey, nutmeg, and black pepper. Stir to combine the ingredients.
- Heat the mixture over medium heat, bringing it to a simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent the quinoa from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Allow the porridge to simmer for about 5 minutes until it thickens and the spices become fragrant.
- After simmering, taste the porridge. You can add more honey for sweetness, or a pinch more cinnamon or nutmeg if you prefer a stronger flavour.
