Healthy Quinoa Breakfast Bowl

I’m a firm believer that a healthy breakfast is the best way to start one’s day. And that says a lot as I’m no stranger to skipping breakfast altogether. With that in mind, I can fully attest to the fact that the days I start on the right foot are the ones in which I continue to make good life decisions. I snack less, I workout more and am significantly more productive at work (I swear). The thing with breakfast is that if it’s not easy, chances are I’m not going to do it. I’ve posted a few breakfast alternatives in the past (most notably here, here and here), but this quinoa yogurt breakfast bowl is currently on heavy rotation. The best part about it is you literally just throw things together, can customize it completely depending on your mood, and it keeps you full well until lunch!
