Looking for a great new breakfast, brunch or snack?
Great! Blueberry Quinoa is here to make your day. Yes, something soooooo simple is really that good. GREAT actually…
If you adore blueberries than this is a no brainer. Here we have blueberries that have been heated & ones that have not. This adds to the flavor.
A super quick ‘n tasty meal that can be prepared the day before you need it.
This gluten free & grain free recipe will satisfy quinoa lovers & will make you a quinoa fan if you are not all ready.
A hard sell? Nope not at all.
Instead of your typical bowl of oatmeal or cereal (which by the way I love both of those) you can go all wild and have this! I have a few other quinoa breakfast recipes on MarlaMeridith.com if you would like to check them out…
- Acorn Squash Quinoa Breakfast Porridge
- Fruit & Egg Quinoa Parfaits
- Maple Banana Toasted Almond Quinoa
- Strawberries & Cream Quinoa Porridge
Did you know that quinoa comes in a few different varieties? Red, white, black & rainbow…(rainbow is really not at colorful as it sounds, it’s a combo of the three)
Close-up this red quinoa is quite seductive…
Especially if you add the whipped cream. Which I always do.
But you all ready knew that! Enjoy…

Ooh! Stunning props, styling and photography with the red quinoa and the fresh blue-blue blueberries, Marla! This recipe is so up my alley. Love that quinoa is a complete protein, too. So nutritious. Thanks for sharing!
I love using other grains instead of oats to change things up in the morning. Gorgeous photos, as always.
It is so pretty and a great breakfast for these last few weeks of summer! I am so sad to have to say good bye to blueberries, so this is the perfect breakfast to load up on over the next few weeks!
Loving this breakfast! Such a gorgeous recipe!
love breakfast quinoas!! this looks delicious and full of blueberry flavor!
Looks and sounds delish! question: If I chose to use Almond milk instead, do you think it would turn out just as yummy?
Mmmm…great breakfast recipe!
I am totally into the quinoa and blueberry combo!
Yummm! Perfect breakfast recipe!
I can’t believe how pretty this is- I am wondering if I could get my kids to try it!? I will let you know 🙂
I love blueberries, what a fab way to eat quinoa!
Dear Marla, This sounds delicious and looks beautiful. I love your site. Found you through a friend on Google+. Now following. Blessings, Catherine
Hello there Catherine! So happy you found me via your pal at Google+. Hope to see you around here often 🙂
I am obsessed with cold cereal and of course I bet this taste so yummy cold. I am looking forward to making this yummy cereal.
Thanks Shundara! Hope you enjoy…I am obsessed with this!
Marla,
Thank you for sharing this recipe. I am going to make it tomorrow morning.
Yay! I hope you enjoy it as much as we did Lisa 🙂
Don’t know why I’ve never tried red Quinoa, looks so nice! This would be my perfect breakfast.
Daniela, the red quinoa has a bit more quinoa “flavor” and it stays a bit firmer as well. Do give it a whirl when you can 🙂
loving this recipe for breakfast! I’m hooked on quinoa so anything using it is the BEST!
Girl, I am totally the same way. Glad to hear you are such a fan of it too 🙂
I’ve seen a few recipes for breakfast quinoa lately and since I’m such a big fan of quinoa for lunches and dinners, I really must give it a try for breakfast!
Ahhhhh. Miss Amanda you must! Don’t let this fool ya either…feel free to have it as “breakfast for dinner.” 😉
Holy Cow, lady, these have to be some of my favorite photos yet. I adore your breakfast bowls and this blueberry version looks perfect.
Aimee….I think you & I are on the same page. This was one of my all time favorite photo shoots. Was so fun to work with this composition & one of my favorite subjects, blueberries! Only thing i wish is that I had swapped out the background…been using it way too much lately!
My kind of breakfast!
This is such a beautiful breakfast idea, Marla! You never cease to inspire me, lady! xo
Thanks so much Ashley!! 🙂
This is a great breakfast recipe– especially on the weekends when all you want to do is eat pancakes and waffles. As one of the world’s healthiest foods, quinoa definitely seems like a better alternative.
I’m thinkin that you can probably turn this into an awesome breakfast by adding maybe some cooked oatmeal..nuts…and it also takes on the flavor you cooking it with…nice!!
George…it really is so versatile! Any additions you mentioned would be great!
Loving this quinoa Marla!!
Oh how wonderful 🙂 blueberries are my favorite! Can’t wait to make this!
How does this keep if you’re the only one eating it? Does it reheat well?
I would just combine the sauce, quinoa & whipped cream as needed.
do the berries need to be frozen before cooking? could I just use all fresh berries?
