Ingredients

  • ½ to 1 cup cooked quinoa
  • ½ cup milk any dairy or non-dairy milk
  • Toppings - berries, pomegranate seeds, peaches, homemade granola, a scoop of yogurt, cinnamon, brown sugar, or a drizzle of honey or maple syrup

Instructions

  • Fill a coffee mug about half full of cooked leftover unflavored quinoa. Add milk (almond milk or any milk) to almost cover the quinoa.
  • Microwave for about a minute until hot. Stir and add toppings!

Notes

  • Make sure your leftover quinoa is plain, made with water not stock, so it is unflavored.
  • You may want to add a sweetener such as honey, maple syrup or brown sugar unless you are using a sweetened milk.  Homemade Almond Vanilla Granola adds some sweetness too!
  • Add as much or as little milk as you like to keep it thick or runny.  I add milk to be just under the top of the quinoa in a coffee mug.
