Equipment
- Pot
Ingredients
- ¾ cup quinoa
- ¾ cup water
- ½ cup non-dairy milk
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds
- ½ cup blackberries
- ½ cup blueberries
- grate fresh ginger
For toppings
- macadamia nuts
- pumpkin seeds
- maple syrup more to taste
- blackberries
Instructions
- Rinse the quinoa and then transfer into a pan with the water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat. Cook for approximately 10 minutes, until most of the water has been absorbed and the quinoa has 'opened'. If it looks too dry add more water.
- Pour in the non-dairy milk, blueberries, blackberries, ginger and chia seeds. Stir well to combine. Cook for a further 5-7 minutes until it becomes a porridge-like texture. Add more non-dairy milk if it becomes too dry, or to taste.
- Spoon into your bowls, and sprinkle on the toppings. Drizzle over the maple syrup and serve immediately. Enjoy!
Notes
- Adjust the amount of non-dairy milk, using more for a 'looser' consistency.
- If you prefer to be nut free, then simply swap out macadamia nuts for more pumpkin seeds.
- Substitute fresh ginger for ground ginger if that's what is in your pantry!
