Apple Quinoa Breakfast

Preparation

1
Rinse the quinoa thoroughly under cold running water using a fine-mesh strainer to remove any bitterness.
2
Combine the rinsed quinoa and water in a small saucepan and bring the mixture to a boil.
3
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan with a lid, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until all the liquid is absorbed.
4
While the quinoa cooks, core the apple and cut it into small, bite-sized cubes.
5
Fold the diced apples, almond milk, and ground cinnamon into the cooked quinoa.
6
Cook the mixture on low heat for another 2 to 3 minutes until the apples have softened slightly and the breakfast is creamy.
7
Divide into bowls and serve warm.
