Preparation

Step 1

Rinse quinoa under cold water for 2 minutes.

Whisk together milk, fat-free half and half, Splenda Brown Sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg in a medium sauce pan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer.

Once the milk mixture is simmering, stir in quinoa and reduce heat to a low simmer. Partially cover the pan and cook for 40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes.

When quinoa is done cooking, stir in toasted pumpkin seeds and serve.

Chef Tip: Rinsing the quinoa is an important step. It helps avoid any bitter taste.
