Buckwheat and Quinoa Porridge

As winter is fast approaching smoothies will no longer be satisfying for breakfast. I love something warm on a winters morning to warm me up before starting my day. This porridge offers a gluten free alternative.

This recipe is also protein rich due to the quinoa which is great as it will keep us fuller for longer.
