Blueberry Breakfast Quinoa
Start your day off right with this protein-packed quinoa breakfast bowl with a touch of tart sweetness from fresh blueberries and a drizzle of honey!
I’ve become a bit obsessed with quinoa – I’m so obsessed that I actually counted 5 bags of Bob’s Red Mill quinoa in my pantry. Plus a bag of TJ’s red quinoa. I think I might have a Costco-stash of quinoa somewhere around the house too.
Yeah, like I said. I’m obsessed.
Jason won’t actually touch quinoa with a 10-ft pole so all this quinoa is actually just for me.
So in an effort to use some of it up, I decided to make a simple breakfast quinoa. It’s more like a quinoa-type-cereal, except it’s packed with protein, fresh blueberries, drizzle of honey for a touch of sweetness, and sliced almonds for that added crunch. It’s the perfect way to start off your morning, or even fulfill your hungry cravings during the midnight hour!

Love quinoa, but have never done it for breakfast! This is awesome!
Great blueberry action and I bought that bowl about 6 weeks ago but havent used it yet! Now I need to! 🙂
Great minds think alike! Anthropologie? I was kind of annoyed that I had to pay over $10 for a single bowl though. And then it chipped immediately when I got home! Oh well, at least it photographs well!
