Banana walnut quinoa hot cereal

Found a cherry almond quinoa recipe from Healthy Girl but didn't have either so I came up with this one :)

Banana walnut quinoa hot cereal Simply Filling +1pp for the walnuts
1 serving

1/4c uncooked quinoa
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/2c skim milk
1 cup water
1/4c egg whites
sweetener to taste
1 small banana sliced leaving a few to put on top
5g walnuts bits

Put quinoa, cinnamon, vanilla, skim milk and water in a non stick pot and bring to boil then reduce to a simmer. Stirring continuously, slowly add egg whites.
Cook and stir until thickened and creamy 14-16 minutes.
Stir in sweetener and banana. Put extra slices of banana on top and walnuts.
Let sit until cooler and thickened.
Enjoy!
