Quinoa Breakfast Porridge
I made this Quinoa Breakfast Porridge in a jar last night for my husband to take to work for his breakfast.
He called me during the morning to say he loved it and so did some of his co-workers whom he shared it with, what a nice guy.
This recipe is so easy to make and a fast, healthy option for your breakfast, especially when you are on the run in the morning.
Quinoa is a plant protein that is awesome to add to your menu planning. It’s so versatile and you can add it to soups, casseroles, or make it into salads or porridge.
Adding nut milk, nut butter and raspberries makes this morning quinoa porridge filling and delicious. Let me know how you like this recipe below in the comments section.

Hi Shirley,
Nice recipe thank you!
Just a question… Isn’t it important to soak seeds/grains like quinoa before using?
Hi Eve, yes if you have time it’s great to soak all seeds/nuts/grains, but for sure rinse quinoa very well to remove the dust and coating that can cause quinoa to taste bitter if not rinsed.
