Ingredients Used for the Chocolate Quinoa Oatmeal Bowl
sprouted organic rolled oats – when looking for oatmeal, be sure to choose organic to lower the amount of glyphosate present. Sprouting rolled oats also lowers the amount of phytates present, to improve the bioavailability of vitamins and nutrients.
multicolored quinoa – adds a good source of plant protein, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants
milk – I recommend purchasing 100% grassfed for top quality
peanut butter – this increases the amount of the healthy fats and plant protein
chia seeds and ground flaxseed – make for a great addition to a variety of meals
vanilla extract, cocoa powder, and ceylon cinnamon – add the perfect touch of sweetness!

Chocolate Quinoa Oatmeal Bowl
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup sprouted organic rolled oats
- ¼ cup multicolored quinoa cooked
- ½ cup milk
- 2 teaspoons cocoa
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter melted
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon ground flax
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ⅛ teaspoon ceylon cinnamon
Toppings
- raspberries
- blueberries
- pumpkin seeds
- peanut butter melted
- pecans crushed
Instructions
- Thoroughly rinse ½ cup of quinoa in a fine-mesh strainer for at least 30 seconds to remove the natural bitterness of quinoa. Place into a small pot on the stove with 1 cup of water, bringing the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce to a simmer as time goes on to maintain a gentle simmer. Cook until the quinoa has absorbed all the water, about 10 minutes.
- In a separate pot, add the oats, cooked quinoa, and oat milk, simmer until the oats have thickened.
- Stir in the remaining ingredients slowly to prevent clumps.
- Pour into your serving bowl, add your toppings, and enjoy!
