Apple Cinnamon Quinoa Bowls
A high protein + high fiber simple breakfast! In the last month I tweaked what I was eating and broke my weight loss plateau, increased my tired mom energy 😅 by a LOT, and the shifts have given me the confidence to know that I’ll get to my pre-pregnancy weight in time.
Ingredients
- 1 cup quinoa
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- Cinnamon
- Cloves
- Dried Ginger
- Himalayan Salt
- 1-2 apples diced
- Slivered almonds
- Almond butter
Instructions
- Cook a batch of 1 cup of quinoa on the stovetop with water according to the directions on the package. Add some salt to the water.
- Once quinoa is cooked, add the almond milk, vanilla extract, maple syrup, hefty sprinkle of cinnamon, light sprinkle of cloves (don’t overdo the cloves!), and 3 pinches of dried ginger, and a dash of himalayan salt
- Bring it all to a boil, then let it cool.
