The quinoa gives your morning a little extra protein. 

QUINOA OATMEAL:  
1 cup steel cut oats 
 ½ cup quinoa 
 1 teaspoon olive or coconut oil 
 4 cups water
 ½ cup almond milk (or whatever milk you prefer) 


  • Heat up the water in a kettle on the stovetop or in the microwave until it is near boiling. 
  • Put the quinoa in a strainer and rinse to prevent a bitter taste after you cook it.
  • Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium heat and add the steel cut oats. 
  • Stir them around and cook until they smell kinda toasty, about 1-2 minutes. 
  • Add the quinoa and the water and bring it all to a boil
  •  (this won’t take long because the water should already be hot). 
  • Turn down the heat on the pot and let it simmer. Let it cook for about 20 minutes. 
  • It should taste done now, not hard but still a little chewy.
  • Add the milk and turn off the heat. 
  • Serve with fresh fruit, nuts, maple syrup, and maybe brown sugar. 

Serves 4
