Plant Based Breakfast Bowl
Grains don’t always need to be served hot! This is a great example of a chilled breakfast bowl. Lots of great plant based protein. Fiber & healthy fats to keep you satisfied. Along with colorful fruits that give your body lots of health boosting antioxidants!
I like to make a batch of quinoa on Sunday evening to have on hand throughout the week. Quinoa is such a versatile grain. It can be added to breakfast , lunch or dinner, as it’s a complete protein.
Not to be super health nerdy but quinoa is rich in magnesium, iron, fiber, and manganese. It contains all 9 essential amino acids and my favorite…It’s gluten free
This yummy bowl will not disappoint! Put your own spin on the toppings if you like. Remember cooking should be fun and allow you to become as creative as you want!
Many Hugs,
