Ingredients:

  • 1 cup quinoa
  • 6 tbsp chia seeds
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 cinnamon stick

Directions:

  1. Pour in water, cinnamon stick, and quinoa into small pot, bring to boil. (I add a tablespoon of coconut oil-but not necessary) Quinoa is done when it becomes slightly translucent and the germ ring becomes visible around the grain.
  2. Mix in 6 tbsp chia seeds. Let cool at least 5 mins so you don't burn your tongue, and chia seeds have time to work their magic.
  3. Serve and top with coconut milk or nut milk, cinnamon, apples or jarred peaches, or other LOW GI fruit. *without fruit is just fine, too!
