Breakfast Of Warriors
- Red Quinoa
- 2 cups water
- 1/3 cup quinoa
- Steel Cut Oatmeal
- 4-5 cups water
- 1 cup steel cut oats
- Before you cook either red or yellow quinoa, soak it in cold water to get rid of the dust and alleviate some of the bitterness. As quinoa is such a fine grain, it will stick easily to a pan. I find it convenient to put the portion in a fine mesh colander and then put the colander into cold water. Once the water runs clear, you can cook your quinoa. It will not take very long-about 10-12 minutes.
- For the steel cut oats: Let the water come to a boil, add the oatmeal and stir it for 5 minutes. Turn down the heat slightly and let it continue to cook for another 15-25 minutes, depending on your desired level of texture.rnrnCombine the cooked oatmeal with the quinoa and add fruit and nuts of your choice. To this version, I added pumpkin seeds, tart cherries, golden raisins and a drizzle of milk.
