You’ve probably heard of quinoa—it is hailed as a super food. It’s high in protein (12%-18%) and contains a balanced set of essential amino acids — this means it’s a surprisingly complete protein. It’s also high in fiber and iron. Quinoa is quite possibly the perfect thing to have for breakfast to start your day off on the right foot.

Here’s what you need…
½ cup quinoa, cooked in water according to instructions on package
1 Tablespoon golden raisins
1 Tablespoon date pieces, chopped
1 Tablespoon pecan pieces, chopped
Dash of cinnamon
Dash of nutmeg
Drizzle of pure maple syrup
Top cooked quinoa with raisins, date pieces, pecan pieces, cinnamon, nutmeg and a drizzle of maple syrup.
