Ingredients

    1/5 cup Whole Grain Quinoa
    1/16 Iodized Sea Salt
    3/4 cup Water
    1/2 cup Carnation Fat Free Evaporated Milk
    1 Tbsp Flax Seed Meal
    2 tsp Honey
    1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
    1/2 cup 1/2% Lowfat Milk
    4 tsp toasted chopped Pecans

Directions

In a small saucepan, combine the quinoa, salt, and water. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 10 minutes. (the quinoa should be tender, but it's okay if it's still a little wet) Uncover, stir in the evaporated milk and 1 tsp honey. Return to a simmer and cook, stirring, until the milk is mostly absorbed and the cereal is a thickness you like, 4-6 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Top each serving with 1/4 cup milk, 1/2 tsp honey and 2 tsp chopped nuts.

Serving Size: 2-1/2 cup servings
