    I was amazed to find a quinoa breakfast porridge at a buffet in Disney World. It had raisins and apples in and was delicious. I want to try to recreate it.

    Has anyone tried the crispy quinoa they sell in bulk at Whole Foods? Thats the only place ive ever seen it. Its SO GOOD. really crispy, kinda like rice crispies but crispier and more substantial, with much better flavor. Ive been having it for breakfast with vanilla coconut milk, sliced banana, and a couple teaspoons coconut sugar. Its great :)

    I bought the flakes you make hot cereal out of, but havent tried it yet-i tasted a couple of the flakes and thought it had a funny taste to it, nothing like the rich nutty taste of quinoa...

    Eta- the crispy quinoa makes a great coating for fish and chicken, too, just season the quinoa with salt, pepper, whatever other seasonings you want (beercan chicken is good), then, dip the meat in egg white and roll in the quinoa/seasoning mix, and fry in a pan with some cooking spray. Yum.com.
