Since I’ve been following a low FODMAP/SIBO protocol, I’ve been experimenting so many different recipes. When it comes to breakfast, you can see my savoury and sweet pancake variations and my Carrot Cake Quinoa Porridge. But today I’ve got a variation on another winter warmer for you! Turmeric Latte Quinoa Porridge!
Quinoa is a pseudograin that provides complex carbohydrates and protein. Hemp protein provides the bulk of the protein to this meal (but feel free to use another source, like an egg or another protein powder), and I’ve even managed to hide some veggies in here too! The coconut butter and toppings (tahini, 100% dark chocolate, coconut flakes) balance out the dish with healthy fats!
This perfectly balanced porridge will keep you satisfied until lunch (and even beyond in some cases)!
