I came across this quinoa breakfast recipe while reading self.com's article about 20 Superfoods to lose weight. I know it is a buzzword, but I am a "superfood" junkie. (Except kale, can't quite figure out what the heck to do with that. And lentils, meh.)

However, quinoa in an orange juice mush for breakfast sounds awful. Here's the recipe:

Cook 1/2 cup quinoa in 2/3 cup water and 1/3 cup orange juice for 15 minutes.
Top with 1 tbsp each of raisins and chopped walnuts.

1. Has anyone tried this?
2. Any other terrible recipes out there?

    That doesn't sound like something I'd enjoy, but I'm sure someone could put that to good use.

    I've tried a lot of smoothie recipes, and most of them are quite disgusting. I think it's because I don't actually have a powerful blender, but I used to force myself to drink them. Urrp

    hmm - i wouldn't have it for breakfast lets put it that way

    HOWEVER >> i have mixed quinoa, dried apricots and nuts for a salad with peppers, chicken and lettuce and it's delicious. I'm just not convinced by the orange juice part. Perhaps try zest of an orange instead?

    but the raisins and walnuts sound good!
