Energize your day with this warm blend of textures and flavors. Make with your favorite plant milk if you prefer.

7 ingredients

...
1 cup Quinoa uncooked
...
1 cup Milk nonfat skim or fat free
...
1 cup Water
...
2 cup Blackberries raw
...
1/2 tsp Cinnamon ground
...
1/2 cup, chopped Walnuts raw
...
4 tsp Agave syrup

6 steps

  • Place quinoa, nonfat milk, and tap water in a 3 quart saucepan (or medium size) and heat on high uncovered until mixture just starts to boil - about 5 minutes or so.
  • Turn heat down to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until most of the liquid is gone (okay if quinoa is very moist).
  • Turn off heat, add fresh blackberries and ground cinnamon, return cover, and allow cooked mixture to sit for 3-5 minutes so that the berries are warmed.
  • Toast walnuts in a dry skillet on medium heat (or in your toaster) for about 2 minutes and then chop.
  • Scoop out even amounts of quinoa between 4 bowls and top with chopped toasted walnuts (about 2 tbsp nuts per bowl).
  • Drizzle with agave syrup – about 1 tsp per bowl.

Tips:
If you don’t have fresh blackberries, then use frozen unsweetened berries. Thaw or gently microwave until just warm.
