*Ancient Harvest Traditional Whole Grain Quinoa, 1 serving =.25 cup dry, 1 cup cooked according to pkg. This will make about 4 cups. Then chill & fluff.
Coconut Oil, 2 tsp
Raisins, .5 cup (not packed) You can substitute other dried fruit of your choice like dried cranberries
Apples, fresh, 1 cup, quartered or chopped
Pecans, .5 cup, chopped You can use walnuts or almonds if you like
Cinnamon, ground, 1 tsp or to taste
**Truvia (Zero Cal Stevia) 1 packet, 1 serving or any 0 calorie sweetener you like

If you make this it will be a lot unless several people are eating it right away. Left overs can be eaten cold & I think are just as good. Sometime I add a little fruit juice (cranberry is good) and stir to fluff it up when it is cold.

If you want this warm cook the quinoa while chopping and measuring the rest of the ingredients. Heat the coconut oil in the skillet. Add the cooked quinoa and other ingredients (except the sweetener) and stir over medium heat until hot and apples soften.
Stir in sweetener and serve.

Serving Size: This makes 4 hearty servings. I often get 6 servings of about a cup each so that is how I figured it.

Number of Servings: 6
