1 tablespoon chia seeds

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)

2 tablespoons chopped nuts (walnuts, almonds, or pecans)

A sprinkle of sea salt

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: In a medium bowl, place the cooked quinoa and pour in the almond milk. Stir until well combined. If your quinoa is a bit dry, you can add more almond milk to reach your desired creaminess.

    Flavor It Up: Add the almond butter, chia seeds, honey (or maple syrup), and cinnamon to the quinoa mixture. Stir thoroughly until everything is evenly mixed. Adjust sweetness to your liking.

      Layer Your Bowl: Spoon the quinoa mixture into your preferred bowl. Top it with sliced banana, a handful of mixed berries, and chopped nuts.

        Finish and Serve: Sprinkle a small pinch of sea salt over the top for an added flavor boost. If desired, drizzle a little more almond butter for garnish.

          Enjoy: Serve immediately while it’s fresh, or refrigerate for a quick breakfast on the go.
