Ingredients:
Soak overnight 2 cups Quinoa (pronounced Keen Wa). In the morning, rinse well (scrunching to get off bitter outer layer of saponas). Put in rice cooker. Add 4 cups boiling hot water (or Celestial Seasonings "Bengal Spice" Tea for added flavor). Press down "on" button of rice cooker and wait about 20 minutes. In the meantime, lightly roast 1 cup of pecans in a skillet (no oil) until pecans are fragrant. Allow pecans to cool down. Grind pecans and 1/2 cup fresh (golden if possible) organic flax seeds (preferably done in a vita mix--but a seed grinder or coffee grinder will do). Combine a few spoonfulls of ground pecan/flax seed with each bowl of cooked quinoa cereal when the cereal has slightly cooled so as to not heat the flax, adding a Tablespoon of fresh refrigerated flax seed oil if desired.

For an extra sweet delight, make a topping: 1 cup of fresh or dried soaked figs, 2 tbsp sesame tahini, 1/2 tsp mellow white miso. Blend in mixer, adding water, yogurt, or Bengal Spice Tea to desired consistency.

This healthy, yummy breakfast treat was created by our dear friend/frequently returning Dragonflyer, Tracy Holzman, who has joined the staff to organize and cook for retreats and workshops.
