I’ve been on a quinoa kick and truRoots has been my go-to. I love their brand because its organic, non-GMO, gluten-free and they have super cute recipe videos on their website. Zelda and I gave one of their recipes our own breakfast spin and came up with a Healthy Quinoa Breakfast Bowl. Girl is developing a MAJOR bacon addiction but we opted for precut pancetta, it’s a little easier to cook and doesn’t make as much of a mess. Throw in a few avocado slices, some eggs and cherry tomatoes, and you’ve got a Zelda approved meal. To make it even healthier for mom, I sprinkled a few chia seeds on top. What breakfast does your crew crave?
