warm and nutty cinnamon quinoa

a tasty breakfast recipe

1/4 cup quinoa (well-rinsed)
1/2 cup water
1-2 teaspoons cinnamon

Bring to a boil. Cover and simmer 15 minutes or until most liquid is absorbed. Turn off heat and let stand covered 5 minutes. Stir in:

milk
honey or sweetener of your choice
chopped nuts of your choice
sweet spices of your choice (ground nutmeg, ground ginger, cinnamon, etc.)

Lately I make 2 cups of quinoa (plus 4-5 of water) with nothing added. I keep it in the fridge. For breakfast, I heat up milk and add maple syrup. For lunch, I add olive oil, soy sauce, garlic and veggies such as tomatoes, avocado, onion, corn, green pepper, etc.
