If making 4 servings of quinoa, follow these instructions. In a saucepan or skillet, over medium to medium high heat, toast for a few minutes. When you start to hear "popping" it is done.
Add 1 3/4 cup of water. Bring to a boil. Stir. Place the lid on. Set a timer for 15 minutes.
When the timer goes off, take the lid off, and fluff. Allow to cook for a minute or two longer.
I ended up with 3 cups of cooked quinoa. I took 1/4 of that- 3/4 cup and placed it back in the saucepan. Add the 1/2 cup of unsweetened almond milk.
Cook until the almond milk is almost completely absorbed.
In a small bowl (I used the bowl I was going to eat out of) mix the cocoa powder, sweetener, salt, and collagen.
Add to the quinoa. Add the vanilla. Stir and cook until thick.
Pour into your bowl and top with desired toppings.
Eat.
