Introduction

I experimented with using Quinoa as a breakfast and added about a teaspoon of peanut butter to the top. This is really delicious! I added a little brown sugar too!

Ingredients

    Water, 1 and 1/4 cup boiling

    Quinoa - 1 cup

    Raisins, cranberries, walnuts depending on your choice and taste

    Cinnamon

    Little brown sugar

    Teaspoon of peanut butter served on top if you desire

Directions

Boil 1 and 1/4 cups of water and add the cup of Quinoa. Per the package directions, it says to simmer for 12 minutes.

Then I added in all the other ingredients covered and let sit for a few minutes to steam and plump up the raisins, cranberries, etc.

I decided to add a little brown sugar...I may try to get away from that!

Split into four serving bowls - refrigerated 3 for later use.

When ready to serve, added a teaspoon of peanut butter to the top.
