Ingredients:

1 Tsp vanilla extract
½ Tsp ground cinnamon
1 handful frozen or fresh berries
Optional: a touch of THM stevia to taste (Canadians get it here)

Directions:

Rinse Quinoa and soak if possible (you can do this overnight to help break down the grain to make it easier to digest)
Bring water or milk to a boil in a small saucepan.
Add quinoa, and return to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer, covered, until three-quarters of the water or almond milk has been absorbed, about 15 minutes.
Stir in stevia and cinnamon. Cook, covered, until almost all the milk has been absorbed, about 8 minutes.
Stir in blueberries or raspberries, and cook for 30 seconds if frozen
Serve with additional almond milk, stevia, cinnamon, and your favorite berries!
