This Raspberry Quinoa Porridge is one of my favourite recipes to make for breakfast. So healthy and easy to make, this is gluten free and can be made vegan.

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.

Instructions

Bring the milk to a boil in a small saucepan. Add the quinoa and return to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer covered until ¾ of the milk has been absorbed, about 15 minutes.
Stir in the sugar and cinnamon. Cover again and cook until almost all the milk has absorbed, about 8 minutes.
Serve in bowls, and top with fruits of your choice.

Cathleen, the brown sugar and cinnamon already convince me that this porridge is yummy!

Haha! I like your style Cathleen! Sometimes I can't stand doing "holiday themed" food posts too. Aren't there enough out there?! But this works great! Can't wait to try!

This is my kind of Valentine treat! I am all about ease too!

Simplicity is the best. I love this. Light and healthy it's the perfect start to the day.

I completely agree...I mean I'm so revved up for Valentine's Day...just really in the mood of baking but I feel like 'been there, done that' with a lot of the recipes. Hahaha but this is a nice and unexpected festive bite.

Thank you for stopping by and commenting on my cupcakes!

Toodles,

Totally agree this will be a great Valentine's day breakfast. It looks fuss free and very pretty with pink rapsberries... which means more time to enjoy kissy kissy... LOL!
