The combination of oats and quinoa makes this porridge smooth, creamy and higher in protein than using only oats. Precooking a big batch of quinoa at the start of the week makes for quick and easy meals when you don’t have much time to cook. You can use any nut butter you like, or even add a small handful of your favourite nuts. We add hemp seeds to this porridge to make it extra filling and provide a source of Omega 3 fatty acids.
This recipe is one of our favourite breakfasts in our meal plans, in which part of the weekly meal prep involves batch cooking quinoa for use in a variety of dishes throughout the week. We love adding quinoa to porridge oats as it makes the texture nice and creamy and adds more protein, making this a very satisfying breakfast.
