  • About

A nutrient-dense way to kick off your day. The heart-healthy plant protein in quinoa helps keep us satisfied well into the lunch hour.

Ingredients

  • 1 Gala, Fuji or Courtland apple, diced, seeded but do not peel
  • ½ cup quinoa, rinsed well

Method

Place cut apple and quinoa in a sauce pan with milk. Bring to a boil and add salt and a generous pinch of each of the spices. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until quinoa has absorbed all the liquid, about 17 minutes.

Serve hot, garnished with toasted nuts.
