BLUEBERRY LEMON BREAKFAST QUINOA

Blueberry Lemon Breakfast Quinoa image

Sweet blueberries and tart lemon pair well in this alternative to oatmeal. High in protein and fiber, quinoa is a great start to your day! I made this up one morning when I had a craving for quinoa and was looking for a change from the usual. Top with extra milk for a thinner consistency. Also good with a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg.

Ingredients

1 cup quinoa
2 cups nonfat milk
1 pinch salt
3 tablespoons maple syrup
½ lemon, zested
1 cup blueberries
2 teaspoons flax seed
