About

This breakfast idea is really a fruity quinoa omelette in a ramekin.  It is very easy to make and if you cook the quinoa ahead of time (you can keep cooked quinoa in the fridge for up to 5 days) it takes minutes to put together.  It is packed with protein and fibre, perfect to kick start your day.  Enjoy!
