Quinoa has been labeled one of the world’s healthiest foods. The nutritional benefits far exceed those of wheat, oats, brown rice and other whole grains. If you have not tried quinoa I suggest you give it a try. Costco sells it in a 5 lb. bag and it’s the perfect amount to keep stored in your fridge (or freezer) to try over the next several months. I personally love quinoa and it wasn’t until recently that I had seen recipes using quinoa as a breakfast cereal. What a great idea! Why didn’t I think of that? I found a recipe for pumpkin quinoa, changed a few things, added a brown sugar crumble for the top and loved the results! I have to admit I like the pumpkin oatmeal recipe a little better, but if you are gluten free or want a breakfast packed full of amazing nutrients, this recipe is perfect. It’s hardy, healthy and will keep you nice and full all morning!
