Warm Cinnamon Raisin Quinoa

Ingredients:

1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk

½ cup quinoa, uncooked

1 teaspoon cinnamon

½ teaspoon vanilla

½ Tablespoon chia seeds (or ground flax seed)

2 Tablespoons raisins

1 Tablespoon almond butter (optional)

Instructions:

Rinse quinoa and drain.

Place almond milk and quinoa into a small sauce pan and bring to a boil. Add cinnamon and vanilla.

Reduce to a simmer and cook about 15 minutes, or until all liquid is absorbed.

**Watch the pot carefully and stir often because it has a tendency to want to boil over. When ready to eat, place a portion of the quinoa into a bowl, drizzle with maple syrup and top with chia seeds, raisins and nut butter.
