Fresh Fruit Quinoa Risotto

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Tasty but I found the dried mint a little bit odd in taste. I would omit it if I make this again. used organic white quinoa which I toasted and I think that added good flavour to the dish, apple cider rather than low-carb apple juice, red pear for the fruit, no optional nutmeg, plus the rest of the ingredients.

    Fresh Fruit Quinoa risotto , Oddly, adapted from Men’s Health magazine Excellent for breakfast or dinner, and a good way to get the family to eat healthily The juice adds a fair amount of sweetness; if it is still too bland for you, add some brown sugar used a light apple juice, though you can substitute a regular one , Tasty but I found the dried mint a little bit odd in taste I would omit it if I make this again used organic white quinoa which I toasted and I think that added good flavour to the dish, apple cider rather than low-carb apple juice, red pear for the fruit, no optional nutmeg, plus the rest of the ingredients , What an excellent twist on quinoa!! As if quinoa isn’t already packed with enough nutrients, then you add walnuts and fruit! This MUST be the tastiest ‘healthy’ sweet treat ever 😀 Made for PAC Spring 2010
