Breakfast Quinoa Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of quinoa
- 2 cups of milk (you can use any type of milk you prefer)
- 2 tablespoons of honey (or to taste)
- 1 cup of mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, etc.)
Instructions:
- Rinse the quinoa under cold water until the water runs clear.
- In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa and milk. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
- Once it’s boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and let it simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the quinoa has absorbed all of the milk. Make sure to stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Once the quinoa is cooked and creamy, remove it from the heat. Stir in the honey until it’s well combined.
- Divide the quinoa between two bowls. Top each bowl with half of the mixed berries.
- Serve warm and enjoy!

Balsamic Glaze Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons of brown sugar
Instructions:
- Pour the balsamic vinegar into a small saucepan.
- Add the brown sugar and stir until it is dissolved.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
- Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer, stirring occasionally. It should take about 15-20 minutes for the mixture to reduce by half and become syrupy.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the balsamic glaze cool. It will continue to thicken as it cools.
Note: This recipe will produce more than needed for two servings of Caprese Skewers. Store the leftover balsamic glaze in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will keep for several weeks and can be used in other recipes or as a dressing or drizzle for salads and roasted vegetables.
