Blood Orange Porridge with Homespun Quinoa Crunch from the Honest Project
This hardly constitutes a recipe, it’s really just a serving suggestion but we couldn’t resist the urge to share these pretty pics. Alas, we can’t take the credit.
The image – and the musings below – are the handiwork of Frances Walsh, a Co Kilkenny based food writer. Check out her beautiful lifestyle blog, The Honest Project.
“Who says porridge has to be boring? I’ve always been a huge porridge fan and go through phases where I eat it every morning. I usually make it on water and then let loose with the toppings. Oats will never be out of favour as a staple breakfast as long as you give a little attention to your toppings. Personalise your morning porridge using some of your favourite nutritious foods and your bowl of porridge will power you.
“This one is my favourite. It's blood orange season and they are so good. Peel and add a few slices to your porridge along with a little almond butter, Homespun’s Quinoa Crunch and banana. Sweeten with apple syrup or honey.”
“Banana and cashew nut butter is another one of my favourite combinations. Add some Quinoa Crunch for some texture. I love this served with almond milk, but you can serve it with whatever milk you fancy.”
