Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup uncooked quinoa
  • 2 cups vanilla almond milk
  • 4 cups frozen blueberries
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla almond milk for blending
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla almond milk for blending
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds toasted

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Cooking pot
  • Serving bowls

Method
 

  1. Start by rinsing the quinoa under cold water in a fine-mesh strainer. In a medium pot, combine the rinsed quinoa with 2 cups of water. Bring it to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes, until fluffy. Let it cool.
  2. In your blender, combine the cooked quinoa, 2 cups of vanilla almond milk, 4 cups of frozen blueberries, 1/4 cup of honey, and 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon of vanilla almond milk. Blend on high until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
  3. If the smoothie bowl is too thick, add more almond milk, a tablespoon at a time, and blend again.
  4. Pour the smoothie into your serving bowls. Top with toasted sliced almonds and any additional toppings you like, such as fresh blueberries, chia seeds, or granola.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Feel free to customize toppings to your liking for added flavor.
  • For a thicker consistency, use less almond milk during blending.
