Lunch: Quinoa Dessert Pudding
Quinoa is a high-protein whole grain. This pudding can be a treat during the holidays, but don't forget to rinse the quinoa before cooking. Rinsing it helps to avoid any bitter taste.
This recipe includes superfoods such as:
Ingredients
1 ½ cups skim milk
1 ½ cups fat-free half and half
¼ cup Splenda Brown Sugar Blend
1 teaspoon vanilla
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup quinoa
½ cup pumpkin seeds, toasted
Instructions
Rinse quinoa under cold water for 2 minutes.
Whisk together milk, fat-free half and half, Splenda Brown Sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg in a medium sauce pan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer.
Once the milk mixture is simmering, stir in quinoa and reduce heat to a low simmer. Partially cover the pan and cook for 40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes.
When quinoa is done cooking, stir in toasted pumpkin seeds and serve.
Chef Tip: Rinsing the quinoa is an important step. It helps avoid any bitter taste.
