I am so excited to share one of my new favourites on the go weekly breakfast with you. I will confess I have had this special love for Oatmeal since I was a kid.
My mom made it for my brother, sister, and me in every possible way as longer we indulge in our breakfast in the morning. So I wanted to create a warm, nourishing breakfast with quinoa and oat bowl that works with a variety of toppings.
It is lightly sweet because of the banana and perfectly crunchy with the nuts topping. You can make the quinoa ahead of time, so I like to do it on Sunday to eat through the week. The quinoa porridge can easily be reheated in a saucepan on the stovetop. Feel free to add a splash of extra coconut milk or Oat milk when reheating if you want it a bit runnier. I topped off with a mix of pine nuts and spicy nuts more on the savory flavor, If you are allergic to nuts you can use Granola nuts free.
