Breakfast: Blueberry Maple Quinoa

Filed in: Dining

A yummy way to enjoy quinoa for breakfast!

BLUEBERRY MAPLE QUINOA RECIPE
Servings: 2

1 cup quinoa, rinsed
1 1/2 cups water
1 cup non-dairy milk (I used YÜ Basmati Vanilla Rice Milk)
Generous drizzle of maple syrup
1 cup fresh blueberries

Cook quinoa in one and a half cups of water in a pot, bringing to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer 15-20 minutes or until water is absorbed.

Remove from heat and add non-dairy milk. Spoon quinoa into bowl. Then drizzle maple syrup on top and sprinkle with blueberries.

What a fabulous breakfast idea! This rice milk is delicious so I’m betting this recipe would be as well!

I’m going to try this tomorrow morning!

I’ve still never had breakfast quinoa, but this makes it look SO tempting!!!

Thanks for the inspiration!

Quinoa is the best breakfast! This looks super tasty- I’m loving the local blueberries right now, too!

YUMMY!

I’ve never had quinoa for breakfast, but I imagine it’s amazing with blueberries and maple syrup! Sounds delicious.

Wow, great idea. I eat very little grains but quinoa is one of them. I really miss breakfast cereal and this will fit the bill! Thank you

Just made this! Yum!

Oh yum! This looks delicious. This will be perfect during Passover too, when oats and wheat are off the menu.

This looks so delicious! I actually have quinoa in the pantry. I should definitely try this!

Yum! This looks so good! Thanks for the great idea…I’ve been a bit stuck for breakfast these days!

I made this for breakfast, it looked like walking through fields of blueberries.
Maple syrup is fall-alicious.
Three cheers for YÜ Basmati Vanilla Rice!

Looks delicious! Ive never actually tried quinoa before, it seems so common in veggie cooking I really should get onto it.

Hi Jen,

What does it taste like?
Anything like porridge (as it’s sweetened and vanilla flavour?)

Thank you so much everyone for your comments!!

Jay — Yes, it does remind me of porridge!
