I am a huge quinoa fan — the trend has stayed with me I guess! I love it in salad but I have never thought about it for breakfast or dessert! These are awesome new recipes to try.

I love quinoa in breakfast & dessert! Especially in my quinoa cookies w/coconut & chocolate chunks (a Food52 recipe contest winner!): https://food52.com/recipes/23486-quinoa-cookies-with-coconut-chocolate-chunks
