There’s nothing more encouraging than starting the New Year off right with some “new” resolutions. Unfortunately, most of us will give up within a month or less – I know I shouldn’t say that but you know it’s usually true. One of the resolutions we should never let go of is eating properly. Although we all have crazy-busy schedules, we should never put healthy eating on the back burner. Thanks to global access, we can now eat almost any food from around the world. There are many “superfoods” out there that are very good for us. Today, I will focus on one which I use often in our diet and its versatility makes it very enjoyable. Quinoa – the “super grain” I like to call it. This South American ancient grain has been consumed as far back as 4 000 years ago. It has significant nutrient and health benefits. It is an excellent source of manganese, phosphorus, iron, calcium, potassium, zinc, riboflavin and folate just to name a few. It is also high in protein and a great source of fiber. This amazing grain is gluten-free and has a high level of healthy fat. The list goes on; it’s an antioxidant, helps to prevent cancer, reduces diabetes risk and much, much more. For today’s recipe, I will show you how I make my Breakfast Quinoa Cereal with Mixed Berries. There’s nothing healthier than having your first meal with quinoa. It will provide you with great energy and you’ll feel good about yourself… well I sure do when I eat this delicious breakfast! With more added superfood ingredients such as cranberries, raisins, blueberries and goji berries, this is an awesome breakfast recipe to enjoy every morning. This Breakfast Quinoa Cereal with Mixed Berries is the perfect healthy & flavorful breakfast to enjoy this season… Although this cereal is quite complete as it is, there’s nothing stopping you from topping it off with other fresh fruits, seeds and nuts… If you enjoy cereals, try this Healthy Homemade Granola or if you prefer juice, try these incredible smoothies; Red Velvet Boost, Berry Fusion, Tropical Sunshine, Pomegranate Avocado Detox, and many more.
