And its just as quick and customizable.

Most of the time my weekday breakfasts range fromsmoothiestoeggswith chicken sausage toGreek-style yogurtwith fruit and granola.

But every now and then I get tired of the texture of oatmeal and want something different.

Cinnamon Quinoa Breakfast Bowl

Thats how I found and started making EatingWellsCinnamon-Quinoa Breakfast Bowl.

The liquid here is water andalmond milk.

(Chunkier pecans or walnuts are a better choice for me.)

Nutritionally, quinoa is very good for you.

Its a great source of plant-based protein and iron and can help with digestion, among other things.

A recent favorite combination was bananas,raspberriesand chocolate tahiniIll be coming back to that one!

Blueberries and a little lemon zest are also a nice add-on to the original bowl.

The mix has buckwheat, millet, chia, amaranth and teff in addition to quinoa.

The mix worked just as wellno modifications needed.

I simply store the portioned-out cooked quinoa in the fridge and reheat it and top it each morning.

Either way, youll have a nice, hot breakfast bowl that switches things up from oatmeal.
