Oatmeal Base

Method

Preparation of Oatmeal

1

Cook Quinoa

Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine quinoa and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes.

2

Cook Steel Cut Oats

In another saucepan, combine steel cut oats, remaining 2 cups of water, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats are tender.

3

Combine Ingredients

Once both the quinoa and steel cut oats are cooked, add the quinoa to the oats and mix well. Stir in milk (or non-dairy alternative) and cook for an additional 5 minutes on low heat until warmed through.
