I love Quaker Oatmeal, but i thought i could make something that tasted just as good, but with more protein. Very simple and delicious. Please note that this is recipe yields a single serving. Ingredients:
1/4 cup quinoa |
1/2 cup water |
1 dash salt |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
2 (2 teaspoon) packets artificial sweetener |
1/2 tablespoon maple syrup |
1/4 cup low-fat vanilla yogurt |
Directions:
1. Add Quinoa, water and salt to a small saucepan.
2. Bring to a boil.
3. Turn the heat down to a simmer and add the cinnamon and Splenda.
4. Allow the mixture to simmer for 10-15 minutes, until almost all the water has been absorbed by the Quinoa. When the Quinoa is fully cooked, it appears soft and translucent and the germ ring will be visible along the outside edge of the grain.
5. Remove saucepan from heat and mix in the maple syrup.
6. Add a dollop of low-fat yogurt on top (optional) and ENJOY!
