How to Make a Quinoa Breakfast Bowl

Can I use any kind of quinoa for this recipe?

Yes! You can use any color of quinoa that you can get your hands on!

How do I do that?

If you would like a creamier consistency, add more milk after the quinoa is done cooking! If you like your quinoa with more of a bite, cook your quinoa normally until all the liquid is gone. Fluff it with a fork and do not add extra milk at the end!

Will frozen blueberries work instead of fresh blueberries?

Yes, you can use frozen berries! Just let them thaw, strain the access water, and then mash them as you would the fresh blueberries!

How long does this blueberry breakfast quinoa last in the refrigerator?

This blueberry breakfast quinoa can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days if you store it in an air tight container.
