Ingredients
To make Fruity Quinoa Porridge, you'll need:
  • 150g quinoa, rinsed
  • 300ml unsweetened almond milk
  • 120ml water
  • 120ml plain soya yoghurt
  • 2 tsp. sweetener
  • 100g strawberries
  • 1 green pear
  • 1 red apple, peeled
  • ¼ tsp. cinnamon powder
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract

Method

  • Put the almond milk, quinoa, and water in a pan, and bring it to the boil.
  • Add the cinnamon powder and vanilla extract.
  • Lower the pan to a medium heat, put the lid on, and simmer for around 15 minutes. Stir constantly.
  • If, after 15 minutes, you think the mixture is too watery, let it simmer for a little while longer.
  • If the mixture is too thick, thin it with water.
  • Mix the cooked quinoa with the yoghurt and the sweetener.
  • Grate the pear and apple, juice included, into a medium-sized bowl. 
  • Combine this with the quinoa mixture.
  • Place in serving bowls.
  • Top with sliced strawberries and serve.
