Hey, it's been cold here in the mornings... so eat Quinoa Breakfast Pilaf! :-)

[Guest guest]

Maybe not as cold as some of you get, but enough to wear my heavy

coat! Anyway, I'm making this tonight so I can reheat it quickly in

the morning... love this stuff!

 

Quinoa Breakfast Pilaf (adding a bit more sugar makes a nice warm

dessert too)

 

Ingredients

 

1 c quinoa

2 c water

1 tsp sugar

pinch sea salt

1/3 c dried cranberries

1/3 c currants or raisins

1 tbsp sliced almonds, toasted

1 1/2 c vanilla soy milk

 

Rinse quinoa very well in a fine-mesh sieve and let drain. In a medium

saucepan, combine water, sugar and salt. Bring to a boil, stirring to

dissolve the sugar. Add the quinoa. Reduce the heat to medium, cover

and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and let stand,

covered, for 5 minutes. Gently toss the quinoa with the fruit and

almonds. Serve with the (warmed if desired) soy milk.
