- 1/2 tbsp EACH chia, hemp, flax seeds
Quinoa Porridge
- 1 c white quinoa rinsed and drained
- 2 – 2 1/2 c milk sub: non-dairy milk
- 1 cinnamon stick OR 1 tsp cinnamon
- 3 cloves OR 1/4 tsp allspice
- 1 tsp vanilla
- Topping Ideas: banana, blueberries, dates, cacao nibs, coconut flakes, almonds, honey
Seeds
Blitz the chia, hemp, and flax seeds in a coffee grinder or a food processor until it turns into a powder. We will be using 1 tbsp of the seed mixture for this recipe. Go ahead and store the rest in the fridge, sprinkling it on your quinoa porridge, oatmeal, smoothies, anything!
Quinoa Porridge
Place a medium pan over medium heat. Add the quinoa, and toast for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
Add the milk, and reduce the heat to medium-low. Bring to a simmer, and add in 1 tbsp of the seed mixture, cinnamon, cloves, and vanilla.
Cook the quinoa porridge, uncovered, for about 15-20 minutes, maintaining a gentle simmer, until the quinoa is softened. Add a splash more milk, if needed, to reach the desired consistency. I like my porridge a bit thinner so I always add more milk.
Remove the cinnamon and cloves, if using.
Divide the porridge between bowls and top with your favorite fruit!
