Oatmeal Topped with Non-Fat Greek Yogurt
Toasted Quinoa, Dried Blueberries, Sunflower Seeds, Blue Agave Nectar
Would you rather eat farm fresh poached eggs and thick smoky bacon? Me too. But part of my heart-healthy regimen includes oatmeal for breakfast several times a week. And that gets boring. Quite. Boring. In looking for healthy ways to jazz it up, I put together this combination of toppings – tangy yogurt, toasty quinoa, nutty sunflower seeds, intense wild berries, and mildly sweet blue agave nectar. It was a delightful way start to the day.
Toasted Quinoa
Toast a couple teaspoons of uncooked quinoa in a hot dry skillet, shaking occasionally, until the quinoa is browned and has a nutty aroma, about 2 minutes. In addition to the toasty flavors, this quinoa adds a nice crunchy texture which complements the chewy little berries.
