Warm Blueberry Cinnamon Quinoa

This is a tasty breakfast dish to make ahead and portion out. I still have a small protein shake with it...

1 cup coconut milk

1 cup water

1 cup quinoa (rinse well to rinse off saponins before cooking)

2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Combine coconut milk, water, cinnamon and quinoa in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat. reduce heat to med-low, cover and simmer 15 minutes or until most of the liquid is absorbed. Turn off heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes. Stir in blueberries (and a little splenda if you like it sweeter).
