Quinoa is not a true grain but rather a superfood related to leafy greens like spinach. It’s gluten-free, low GI, and a complete protein, meaning it provides all nine essential amino acids needed for repair and recovery.
Meanwhile, flaxseeds offer omega-3 fatty acids, which help support heart health, immunity, and inflammation control. Apples add a natural sweetness and fiber boost, making this porridge both tasty and healthy—no added sugar needed!
