Breakfast was Quinoa pancakes and bananas. Lunch was gnocchi with Alfredo and blue cheese, cheddar cubes, broccoli and tomatoes. Snack is apple cinnamon muffins laced with more quinoa.
We do vegetarian mainly so quinoa is in LOTS of our stuff for the protein.

We had "Hamburger soup" today for the first time. It was a hit with most of the group. I will be making it again. I served apple slices and cheese on the side.

I would love the pancake recipe as well ~ always love to try new ways to use it
Here is the Porridge recipe ~ it is suppose to serve two adults so I double it for daycare my crew and if there is 'left over' than my other half has it for next day breakfast.
http://howdoyoucookquinoa.com/581/ci...coconut-milk/#
Cinnamon Raisin Quinoa Porridge
1 cup coconut milk
1/2 cup dry quinoa, rinsed
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. honey
1/2 tbsp. margarine
dash of salt
2 tbsp. raisins
Bring the milk to a boil. Add all the other ingredients, lower heat, cover and simmer 15 minutes.
I use the same basic recipe and than will I add different things for variety ~ so craisins, peaches, apple, mango, coconut flakes, almond or pecan pieces
