RICE AND QUINOA BREAKFAST PUDDING



Rice and Quinoa Breakfast Pudding image

A warm breakfast pudding with more texture than regular oatmeal. It tastes great the same day you make it, and heats up well for those rushed work mornings. Top with blackberries, blueberries, dried cranberries, raisins, toasted coconut, or nuts.
