Toasted Quinoa Cereal with Almond Milk



I love eating quinoa Cereal for breakfast. When I eat it leaves me with a satisfied full feeling. It seems to give me added energy in the morning too. The toasted quinoa gives it a nice texture and wonderful flavor. You can get creative and add your favorite fruit on top.

Ingredients

1 C washed quinoa
2 T coconut oil
1 C almond milk
1 C water
2 T honey
1/2 tsp cinnamon
top with fruit of choice
top with unsweetened shredded coconut *optional

Directions  Serves 4

1. Pour washed quinoa and oil into a sauce pan. Turn on to medium heat and stir and toast the quinoa until a light golden. 

2. Pour in the milk, water and honey and cinnamon. Stir until all combined. Bring mixture to a low boil. Turn down the heat and cook on low about 20-30 min. The mixture will be thick and the quinoa will be cooked. 

3. Take off the heat and serve. Top with some additional almond milk and fruit of your choice.
