    Creamy Coconut Maple Quinoa For Grown Ups

    There’s something memorable about starting your day with a cozy bowl of creamy quinoa. Quinoa (pronounced keenwah) looks and acts like other cereal grains such as barley and wheat berries, but it’s actually a seed thereby making it naturally gluten-free. There’s so much to love about quinoa! It’s both a complete protein (unlike most plants) and a source of butyrate and omega-3 fats - two super nutrients that are anti-inflammatory and protective against cancer, heart disease and more. Beyond these amazing benefits, quinoa is also loaded with essential vitamins and minerals often missing in common diets, including magnesium, iron and zinc. You’ll definitely want to add Danielle’s rich and delicious quinoa to your breakfast rotation!
