  2. BLUEBERRY BREAKFAST QUINOA
    (adapted from Martha Stewart)

    Ingredients
    2 cups hemp milk, plus more for serving
    1 cup quinoa, rinsed
    3 tablespoons light-brown sugar, plus more for serving
    1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon, plus more for serving
    1 cup (1/2 pint) fresh blueberries, plus more for serving


    Bring milk to a boil in a small saucepan. Add quinoa, and return to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer, covered, until three-quarters of the milk has been absorbed, about 15 minutes.
    Stir in sugar and cinnamon. Cook, covered, until almost all the milk has been absorbed, about 8 minutes. Stir in blueberries, and cook for 30 seconds. Serve with additional milk, sugar, cinnamon, and blueberries.

    **In a pinch? Cook quinoa in the rice cooker the night before. Warm the quinoa with a little milk in a saucepan and throw in other ingredients, stir and enjoy in half the time:)

  3. EASY HAM AND ASPARAGUS BREAKFAST CASSEROLE
    (OK, it's not that healthy, but it's delicious and there is no other breakfast section for this recipe)

    About 3/4 cup cut up ham
    About 1/2 to 3/4 cup fresh asparagus cut in pieces (lightly steamed or cooked first)
    8 eggs
    2 1/4 cups milk
    1 tsp salt
    1 tsp dry mustard
    6-7 slides white bread, cut or broken into small pieces or cubes
    1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

    Grease a 9 x 13-inch cake pan and set aside. In a large bowl, beat the eggs; add milk, salt and mustard. Stir in the bread cubes or pieces, cheese, ham and asparagus. Pour this mixture into the cake pan. Cover and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight. Remove from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before baking. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees F for 40 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
