Directions
For the Quinoa & Oats:
- Bring water to boil in a small pot, add quinoa and simmer.
- After the quinoa has simmered for 5 mins, add the oats to the pot and continue to simmer on low heat for another 10-15mins or until all the water has been absorbed.

- Add your desired toppings evenly into each bowl: Goji Berries, Chia Seeds, Sunflower Seeds, Almonds, Almond Nut Butter.
Notes
Can I make this bowl into Overnight Oats instead?
Soak the Oats & Chia Seeds overnight in the Almond Milk (or milk of choice). Follow steps 2-3 above
Substitutes:
- You can use either oats or quinoa – or both! Your choice 🙂
- If you like a little sweetness, mix some Nature’s Gold Raw Honey into your oats/quinoa OR for our banters & vegans, add a spoonful or YouFirst Erythritol into the warm oats/quinoa (so that it melts in).
- Swap Almond Milk for Coconut Milk, Soy Milk, Dairy Milk, Rice Milk that suits your dietary requirements.
- Add flavours into your oats, like Cinnamon, Turmeric, Cocoa etc.
