¾ Cup Coconut Milk (Recipe for my homemade coconut milk, here)
2 Tbsp Protein Powder (I use Pumpkin Seed Protein for this recipe, found here)
2 Tsp Vanilla Bean Powder (I use Terrasoul brand, found here)
1.5 Tsp Cinnamon
1-2 Handfuls of fresh spinach
Desired fruit for topping (I use ½ banana or berries)
Other toppings (optional): paleo granola (I always have a batch of this granola on hand), unsweetened shredded coconut, crushed nuts
Instructions
Mix quinoa and coconut milk in a pot over high heat, bring to a boil
Reduce to a simmer on low heat
Cover pot and cook on low for 8-10 minutes until most of the liquid is absorbed (you will want a little liquid left in order to mix in the protein powder)
Add vanilla, cinnamon, protein powder & spinach. Add in additional coconut milk if necessary
Stir together and once spinach is wilted, remove from burner
Sprinkle on desired toppings and serve!
