Quinoa Power Porridge
At the heart of this Power Porridge is quinoa, a complete protein that provides essential amino acids and a host of other nutrients. Cook the dried quinoa in a mixture of water and unsweetened almond milk, creating a creamy and nutritious base for the porridge. This combination offers a subtle nutty flavor that complements the other ingredients perfectly.
