If you’re not an oatmeal lover, this still might be for you.

Most oatmeals are really low on my breakfast totem pole, but this breakfast quinoa dish I really, really love.

It’s incredibly easy to make and, with fresh berries, milk and quinoa as its main ingredients, it’s a great healthy breakfast choice. It will warm you up on the inside and keep you satiated until lunch.

I first saw it on Pinterest several months ago and immediately repinned it to my “must-try” board. Most of those recipes on that board are still waiting to be made, but this one was so quick, easy and promised to transform my morning breakfast routine; I couldn’t resist.

You may want to toast your quinoa before it’s used in your favorite recipes as it adds a lot of flavor! To do this, simply rinse a few times under cold water, then toast it in a dry skillet over medium heat. You want to make sure the quinoa is golden brown; this will take around 10-15 minutes. Be sure to give your skillet a good shake every minute or so as you don’t want the quinoa on the bottom of the pan to burn.

The original recipe {by Martha Stewart} called for fresh blueberries. We tried it with both dried blueberries and fresh blackberries; both were delicious although the fresh fruit was preferred. Dried fruit can be sweeter so start with less sugar and add more as necessary.

Here’s to a healthy & delicious start to your day!
