Toasted Coconut & Almond Quinoa Oatmeal
Toasted Coconut & Almond Quinoa Oatmeal by Momma Cuisine. Sponsored by Living Now.
My kids absolutely love oatmeal for breakfast. In fact, I make it for them at least 3 times a week. When I was thinking of quinoa recipes, I thought of simply adding it to my kids oatmeal to add extra protein and grain without them really noticing or changing the texture profile too much. I dug in myself and I must say, it's pretty darn amazing!
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup Now Foods quinoa
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/4 cup sweetened shredded coconut
- 1/4 raw slivered almonds
- 4 tablespoons honey
Combine milk, water, quinoa and oats in a medium sauce pan and bring to a
boil. Turn the heat down to low, stirring occasionally until oats and
quinoa are cooked through, about 15 minutes. Turn heat off.
Put the shredded coconut and slivered almonds in a saute pan and toast
on medium heat until the coconut turns a slight golden brown.
Top the quinoa oatmeal with toasted coconut & almond topping and honey.
