How to Make Quinoa And Oatmeal Cereal Heart Healthy
Rinse 1/2 cup quinoa thoroughly under cold water to remove any saponins.
In a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup quinoa, 2 cups water or unsweetened almond milk, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-30 minutes, or until the quinoa and oats are cooked through and the liquid is absorbed. Add more liquid (water or milk) as needed if the mixture becomes too thick, especially depending on the apple's juiciness.
Stir in 1/4 cup chopped walnuts, 1/4 cup raisins, and 1/2 of a medium diced apple.
Serve warm, topped with 1 tablespoon of raw honey and 1/4 cup of banana slices and a splash of rice milk.
