The inspiration for this breakfast bowl came to me one morning when I was looking for a quick and easy way to get a healthy breakfast on the table. I had some leftover cooked quinoa in the fridge, and I wanted to find a way to use it up. I also had some fresh raspberries in the fridge, and I thought they would be a great addition to the quinoa. I added some almond milk, walnuts, chia seeds, honey, vanilla extract, and cinnamon, and the result was this delicious and nutritious breakfast bowl.
