Quinoa Porridge

Looking for something warm and a little sweet in the morning yet still full of nutrients and energy? Try my quick and easy quinoa and spiced apple porridge. The almond milk and quinoa give you a nice protein punch and the nuts and seeds provide a great source of healthy fats. The cinnamon gives it a nice warming feel and kick and will help to reduce cravings throughout the day.
