Quinoa is a neat alternative to oatmeal, grits, or cream of rice. It’s healthy, yummy and easy to prepare. Just follow the directions on the outside of the package. Add low-fat or skim milk to freshly cooked quinoa. Sprinkle some cinnamon on top. Mix in sunflower seeds, nuts, or granola clusters for an added bite. Other great toppings: raisins, yogurt-covered raisins, honey, butter, fresh fruit, or maple syrup. Feeling frisky? Add dried cranberries for a tangy kick. Of course, we suggest topping servings with a moderate number of mini marshmallows to get kids digging into bowls of quinoa in the morning.
Helpful Hint: For a richer and creamier blend, substitute milk for water when cooking quinoa.
