Vegan Breakfast- Banana Blueberry Overnight Quinoa

Here is the recipe for some easy vegan breakfast: delicious banana blueberry overnight quinoa.

We all know breakfast is a hectic meal to get through during those crazy weekday mornings. Whether you have kids rushing out of the door to get to school or heading to work in a hurry because you slept through your alarm, an easy breakfast can help. Overnight oats have been a great on the go meal and continue to be a great morning go-to. My husband loves overnight oats, but for me, I prefer quinoa given that it’s lower calorie and lower fat per gram. Using quinoa also provides a unique nutty flavor which enhances the dish as a whole. This recipe is simple and a super quick meal to prepare since it’s basically “blend, pour, and let it sit.” The banana blueberry combination is a classic one and adding in the dates allows you to get the sweetness without the processed sugar. With that being said, I am almost certain you will be more than willing to make this for your kids without hesitation since it’s packed with only healthy whole food ingredients.
