1. Raspberry Quinoa Porridge
Freshen up classic oat porridge with this quinoa-flake version, which adds protein, since quinoa is technically a seed, not a grain. Raspberries add natural sweetness along with a host of nutrients, including fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, Poulson says. The best part is you can whip up this healthy breakfast in just two minutes.
