Quinoa Breakfast Bowl

This Quinoa Breakfast Bowl is not only healthy, but it’s also delicious. I used fresh cucumbers, tomatoes, and kale from my tower garden. If you don’t have a garden stop by your local farmers market. This recipe is easy and you can make extra to last through the week. It’s perfect for regular carb day for FWTFL too.

Some of you may be thinking what is quinoa and how is it good for me? Here is a little information about it. Quinoa (pronounced “keen-whah”) is a complete protein and contains all nine of the essential amino acids. It’s also a great source of calcium and is high in B vitamins, iron and full of antioxidants. Quinoa is also popular because it’s a gluten-free grain and it’s easy to digest. If you follow me on my Instagram Stories, you know I eat this stuff several times a week.

Quinoa has a nutty flavor and a fluffy texture. Preparing it is similar to cooking rice. It’s two parts liquid to one part quinoa. Using broth instead of water gives it more flavor.

Rinse quinoa thoroughly before cooking to remove any powdery residue.

Bring water or broth to a boil, and add quinoa. Reduce the heat and cover with lid. Let it simmer for about 15 minutes or until water is evaporated. Fluff and serve.

Add cooked sausage crumbled, scrambled egg, cucumbers, kale, and tomatoes to quinoa. Top with shredded parmesan cheese and enjoy. Omit cheese for dairy free and FWTFL.

Can you say delicious?! I hope you love this healthy recipe as much as I do.
