I tasty breakfast dish that uses the super food quinoa. Quinoa's protein content is very high, making it great vegetarians and vegans. It also contains a balanced set of essential amino acids for making it an unusually complete protein source and is a good source of dietary fiber and phosphorus. Quinoa is gluten-free and high in magnesium and iron. What a better way to start the day!! Ingredients:
1 cup water |
1 cup 1% low-fat milk |
1 cup quinoa, rinsed |
1 tablespoon butter |
1 tablespoon honey |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 cup frozen peach slices |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/4 pecan halves, toasted |
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients in saucepan over medium high heat.
2. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a low simmer. Cover and cook for 15 minutes.
3. Remove from heat and allow to sit for an additional 15 minutes.
4. Top with toasted pecans and serve.
