Quinoa Porridge

There is a great new breakfast place in Central Phoenix, SNOOZE,  that is my absolute favorite! They serve organic, healthy eats in a fun atmosphere. My favorite breakfast there is their Quinoa Porridge. This is as close as I could come to it; I think it is quite delicious! Enjoy! 

Ingredients:

1/2 cup cooked quinoa

1 cup milk (I use unsweetened vanilla almond milk, but use any milk you like)

1/2 banana (mashed)-choose a banana that is a little more rip to give added sweetness

1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

dash cinnamon

1 tbsp. chia seeds

Directions:

Combine all ingredients in a small sauce pan and bring to a boil. Turn down to medium low heat. Cook until porridge is

thick and creamy (about 10 minutes.)

Top as desired. Last time I made this, I topped with fresh blueberries & sliced almonds
