“Good Morning” Quinoa Porridge with Honey Recipe

GLUTEN-FREE | DAIRY-FREE

Serves 1

Ooh, quinoa porridge with honey, you say? Yes, we do. It’s high in protein and fills you up. Yum. Great for those with a sweet tooth.

Bored of your normal porridge? Want something different that’s also high in protein? Try quinoa porridge. It’s nutty-tasting and goes well with either savoury or sweet toppings. We especially love it with raw honey.

Ingredients

• 1 cup quinoa
• 2 cups almond milk
• 1 tbp vanilla essence
• 1 tbsp raw honey
• 1 tbsp seed sprinkle
• Pinch of salt

Method

1. Mix the quinoa and almond milk in a saucepan over a low heat.
2. Bring to a simmer and stir frequently for 12 minutes.
3. When the quinoa ‘tails’ start to break away, you know you’re nearly done! If you need to add more liquid do, add either more almond milk or water.
4. Once the ‘tails’ start showing, add in the vanilla essence. Make sure you taste as you go – it should have ‘bite’ yet not be crunchy.
5. Spoon your porridge into a bowl, add the pinch of salt, drizzle on the honey and sprinkle on the seeds.
6. You’re ready to go! Serve with green tea or a cup of hot water with honey, lemon and ginger in.
