Breakfast Power Bowl

Breakfast Power Bowl  Simply Happenstance-105Gluten-Free // Breakfast Power Bowl

Breakfast… it’s hands-down, my favorite meal of the day. I honestly wake up each morning, excited for my cup of coffee and ready to eat! I typically start my day with a healthy protein shake or smoothie. However, if I have a little more time, or if it’s the weekend, I get a bit more creative. Thank goodness for those days! They’re truly my favorite!

This satisfying dish is one you can whip up the night before. (Sure… that takes a little more planning, but some days just call for a special morning treat!) If you are already having quinoa for dinner… make a little extra! When the kids go off to bed, add some chia seeds and almond milk to it, give it a stir, and place it in the refrigerator until morning. Simple, right?

When you wake, cut some fresh fruit, rinse some berries, get out your sliced almonds, and warm up some almond butter (plus honey, if you’d like). Top the quinoa/chia seed/almond milk pudding with your favorites! You’ll be left with the tastiest (healthy) power bowl!

For those of you that don’t like almond butter, you can use a tiny bit of coconut oil (in its place), or add in a few tablespoons of coconut/almond milk to keep the breakfast bowl good and moist.

That being said, I personally wouldn’t skip the almond butter! In fact, I’d even put some raw honey in it, heat it up slightly, and drizzle it all over the top, like so…

Now, let’s talk health benefits… 

  • Quinoa // naturally gluten-free and a complete protein
  • Chia Seeds // they’re just AMAZING, but mostly known for their mega source of omega-3 fatty acids
  • Almond Milk // dairy-free and a great source of calcium
  • Fresh Fruit // neccesary vitamins, fiber, and antioxidants
  • Raw Almonds // healthy fat and vitamin E
  • Almond Butter // protein, helping you feel satisfied longer
  • Raw Honey // a natural (unrefined) sweetener

Other incredible toppings // sliced strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, kiwi, peaches, coconut shavings, goji berries, pomegranate seeds, pumpkin seeds, nut butters, cacao nibs, or crunchy granola.

You could even add…. mini dark chocolate chips! (This creation was HEAVENLY!) You can really make the base of this quinoa pudding and add whatever you’d like! I don’t think you could go wrong! Enjoy, friends!

    wow. This was yummy! I subbed in maple syrup for the honey and used whole almonds-which is probably weird, but I like the occasional big crunch. Thanks for the idea

  2. Alright, so I tried nh88chametainang. It’s…fine. Nothing particularly stands out, good or bad. It’s functional, the games are there, deposits/withdrawals are reasonably quick. If you’re not picky, it’s alright. If you’re looking for something special, maybe keep looking: nh88chametainang.
