Raspberry Quinoa Porridge

I was trying to rack my brain to think of anything quick and easy to make for Valentines day.

Red velvet cake is out obviously. I just have no time to make a cake.
Heart shaped...anything pretty much is on the same boat. No time at all.

Seriously, this week has gone by so quickly, and it feels like I didn't get anything done.

So pretty much my half-ass attempt at making something Valentines day-esque is just topping something that I can make in less than 30 minutes with raspberries. It's red, so that means it's a fit candidate for a Valentines day themed recipe. Obviously.

But I'm sure anyone would appreciate this porridge on a cold February 14th morning, or any morning in fact. I would have never thought of having quinoa for breakfast, but there you are.

Actually, that is not true. I have made quinoa pancakes before, and they were one of the most delicious pancakes I have ever made.

So if you're a busy bee, but are in need of a quick breakfast, I would highly recommend this porridge. It's quick, easy, and best of all, healthy.
