I love Breakfast and that in all variations. Admittedly, it is then about monotonous during the week and there is usually a variation with oatmeal or 1-2 slices of rye sourdough bread. Therefore, I went in search of tasty alternatives and came across Quinoa stumbled upon. Most of the time we eat quinoa with savory dishes and rarely as a dessert. Especially for breakfast, however, I love really sweet, chocolatey things that leave such a nice comforting feeling in my stomach. Easy to digest, full of protein and so incredibly delicious.

There are now hundreds of sites that describe quinoa as the new miracle par excellence. I think we should not exaggerate here and just look at the facts. Quinoa has quite nutritional benefits and contains:

  • Essential fatty acids such as lysine, tryptophan or cystine that the body itself cannot produce
  • Valuable minerals such as magnesium, calcium, potassium and iron
  • Lots of vegetable protein (14g per 100g quinoa)
  • Thiamine (B1) and vitamin B6 (building cells and tissues)
  • Secondary plant compounds (have an antioxidant effect and can prevent diseases)

How do I prepare quinoa properly?

Chocolate Quinoa Bowl (20 minutes)

The only question is how to prepare quinoa properly. A tip in advance, I always prepare a larger amount of quinoa for the whole week. So I can quickly and easily reheat the pseudo cereal and prepare the most delicious dishes with it. For example, when I think of the stuffed Portobello mushrooms , Shawarma Bowl , Chili sin Carne or Meatballs my mouth immediately waters.

Here I have summarized the most important steps for you:

  • Step 1: Wash thoroughly and hot, because the peel contains bitter-tasting saponins that protect the plant from pests. These do not taste very good and are not very digestible. Start the kettle and rinse well once, then you are on the safe side. (Alternatively, you can also soak the quinoa overnight, which additionally reduces the content of phytic acid and reduces the cooking time.).
  • Step 2: One Put part quinoa in a pot with 3 parts water and heat. Once the water boils, turn down to medium heat and simmer for about 15 minutes leave until the pseudocereal has absorbed all the water. Caution. Not cook too hot, otherwise it may burn.
  • Step 3: Short Cool and run a fork through. Ready! The quinoa is now ready cooked and fluffy. You can serve it immediately, up to a week airtight Store sealed in the refrigerator or freeze. Warm up best in the Steamer, or in a pot with a little oil and water.
