Cinnamon Apple Quinoa Breakfast

This is a great chilly morning porridge.  It makes for a great alternative to oatmeal and has just enough sweetness you could serve as a dessert!!

I will be making this again, trying different flavors such as nutmeg, or adding bananas. (when I can eat bananas again).

The honey was a nice addition of sweetness.  Apples were cooked perfect.  I cooked almost exactly 25 minutes after it boiled.  Super low heat for simmer and I kept the lid closed until the time was done.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup quinoa
• 1 1/2 cups water
• 2 large apples
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• Honey

Instructions

Peel and core both apples. Chop them into bite-sized pieces.

Add quinoa, water and apples to a sauce pan. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce to simmer for 20 – 25 minutes. The apples will be soft and the quinoa will have absorbed the water.

Stir in cinnamon and transfer mixture to two bowls.

Drizzle with honey and sprinkle with additional cinnamon (if desired). And enjoy!
