Quinoa Breakfast Bowl

Grain bowls are on-trend right now. They also happen to be a great way to put together a balanced meal – one that incorporates complex carbs, healthy fats and plenty of protein. It’s nice to switch up the typical breakfast foods with this savoury dish. Plus, one-dish meals means less to clean up!
