Ingredients

  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup quinoa
  • 1 banana
  • 1/2 cup frozen blueberries

Directions

Step 1

Pour quinoa into a sauce pan with water.  Bring to a boil and stir. Reduce heat and cover the pot. Let quinoa sit for 15-20 minutes to absorb the water and get fluffy.

Step 2

Peel and mash the banana with a fork in a small bowl or on a plate.

Step 3

When the quinoa is ready (no excess water in the pan, and visible “tails” on the quinoa), add mashed banana and blueberries.

Step 4

Stir, allowing blueberries to thaw.
