Chocolate banana quinoa hot cereal Simply Filling +0sp


Chocolate banana quinoa hot cereal Simply Filling + 0sp

1/4c uncooked quinoa
1/2c skim milk
1 cup water
1/4c egg whites or 2 egg whites
sweetener to taste
banana chopped leave a few to put on the top
2 tsp unsweetened cocoa
3g hemp hearts 0sp  Optional
2g unsweetened cocao nibs 0sp Optional

Next time I'll cook it in my electric pressure cooker which would be quicker and stir in the egg white quickly when it's finished cooking. The heat will still cook it.

Put quinoa, skim milk, cocoa and water in a non stick pan.
Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer.
Stirring continuously add in the egg whites. You won't taste them but it adds protein and a lot of creaminess.
Cook and stir until creamy usually 14-16 minutes.
Add in most of the banana and sweetener.
Put into a bowl and add the banana and hemp/nibs if using.
Let sit to cool a bit and thicken up.
Enjoy!

Multigrain peaches and cream hot cereal simply filling

This is definitely not like instant peaches and cream oatmeal it's better :) It's a stick to your ribs chewy bowl of amazing!!

I tried making this in the microwave and I would definitely make this on the stove top. You could make double or triple and put extra in individual dishes either in the fridge or freezer to heat in the microwave a different day!

I also wouldn't buy containers of the grains but go to your bulk section or health food store bulk section and buy a cup of each for a dollar or two. That will make many breakfasts.

Multigrain peaches and cream hot cereal simply filling

2 tbsp bulgur
2 tbsp pearl barley
3 tbsp old fashion rolled oats
3/4c water
1 tsp vanilla
if the brown sugar doesn't make it sweet enough add a bit of sweetener of your choice
1/2 peach chopped
1-2 tbsp fat free cream I just used 1
1/2 tbsp brown sugar 0pp

Put the bulgur, barley, oats, water, vanilla and optional sweetener in a saucepan and cook on medium heat until boiling then keep stirring until thickened. It will still be chewy but cooked. Add the peach and cook for another minute or two.

Put into bowl. Sprinkle brown sugar and pour cream on top :)

Enjoy

I also made this with a banana and a bit of maple extract :)

Hot oat bran

Hot oat bran cereal on a cold day is amazing!

I cooked mine in a cup of skim milk to get some dairy in.

This is the way I make it and it never comes out lumpy.

I put 1 cup of skim milk in a small pot and added 1/3c of quaker oat bran and a bit of sweetener to taste.
Turn the burner on medium and keep stirring :) When it was almost thick enough I added a splash of vanilla extract and some chopped up banana leaving a bit of banana to put on top!
When thick pour into a bowl, add leftover banana on top and today I added a tsp of sugar free chocolate chips 1pp.

Simply Filling plus 1pp for the chocolate chips or any other add on's

I just made an individual amount for me so if you make more than one serving it might change the points. Corn Salad 2sp 1/2c corn which...
