Title: Review Banana & Strawberry Quinoa from Baby & Toddler Book pge 72
Post by: judydawn on February 13, 2016, 09:16:37 am

I recently bought bulk packs of quinoa and chia seeds from Costco and I must confess to liking chia better than quinoa unless it's in a soup.  I have never tried salads with them but I will do so.

This porridge makes 2 cups for 6 month old children and it freezes well too. I didn't blitz it as the recipe stated, I couldn't see the point for an adult.  I did add a touch of sugar as it wasn't sweet enough for me and it did need some milk added at the end of cooking as well because it was too thick.  Maybe it did need to be blitzed, I'll try that when I have another serve. 

Having said and done all that, I didn't really enjoy it.

Yes, I love chia based breakfast meals but this just didn't do it for me Denise.

Judy I love quinoa in salads. Hopefully you will prefer that.
