Creamy Quinoa Mousse
- 1/2 cup toasted quinoa (Quinoa-Toasted)
- 1 1/2 cups skim milk
- 2 -4 cardamom pods, bruised
- 1 -2 whole cloves
- 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon four mixed spice
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 3 -4 cups skim milk
- 2 ripe bananas
- Combine the quinoa, the 1-1/2 cup of milk, the cardamom, cloves, 4-spice, cinnamon, and vanilla in a LARGE saucepan. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, covered until quinoa is entirely cooked (the grains should be entirely transparent), about 20 to 30 minutes. Stir frequently.
- Remove cardamom and cloves. Liquefy in blender with the remaining milk. Pass through a very fine sieve.
- Just before serving, return to blender with the bananas (calculate 1/2 a banana per portion) I live alone, so I usually just take part of quinoa mix and blend some just for me: the quinoa will last 3-4 days in the refrigerator.
