Quinoa Breakfast Bowl
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup quinoa
- 1½ cups water
For the Bowl:
- 1½ cups cooked quinoa
- ¼ teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon honey optional
- 1 banana sliced
- 2 tablespoon nuts of choice, chopped or sliced
- ½ cup dairy-free milk almond, soy, oat, etc.
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds optional
- 8 blueberries
Instructions
To Cook the Quinoa
- Rinse the quinoa well and add it to the cooker. Add the water and close the lid.
- Pressure cook on HIGH pressure for 1 minute. When the time is up, release pressure using the natural release method.
- Electric cookers: turn off the Keep Warm function and allow the pressure to release naturally.
- Stovetop pressure cookers: remove the pot from the hot burner and allow the pressure to release naturally.
- Strain and cool the quinoa. Once cooked, it will be almost double the volume.
To Assemble the Bowls
- Put the pre-cooked quinoa in a bowl and add the cinnamon, cardamom, and milk. If you want a sweeter flavor, add a spoonful of honey. Mix gently.
- Spoon the mixture into two individual bowls. Add the bananas, blueberries, nuts, and chia seeds (if desired). You can also add more milk if you'd like.
Notes
You can make this recipe with any fruits, nuts, and other garnished you’d like. We recommend trying strawberries, almonds, and any other seasonal fruits for a different dish each time!
