Quinoa Breakfast Bowl and French Press Coffee

April 24, 2016 By Jittery Cook 4 Comments

French Press Coffee

I love coffee — particularly really good coffee. And I’ll go to great lengths to ensure that the coffee I drink has the right exaggerated, bold, rich flavour. I’ve tried Nespresso, Keurig, a percolator and many, many drip machines over the years, and they’re OK. But for a simple, robust, full flavour brew that satisfies yet leaves you yearning for more, I keep returning to my French press.

I’d never heard of Barista & Co’s coffee plunge pot until I was offered one to review. Elegant in its copper coating, it works well with medium to coarsely ground beans.

And while we’re on the subject, here are 7 reasons why coffee is good for you.  And now, for the most delicious breakfast you never knew you craved…

Quinoa Breakfast Bowl

Quinoa Breakfast Bowl

  • 1/3 c cooked quinoa, hot or warm
  • 1/2 apple, diced
  •  8 raw cashews
  • 1 t each cacao nibs, mulberries, ground flax seed, chia seed, hemp seed, sunflower seed
  • 1/4 c Greek yogurt

Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Devour and enjoy your day. Serves 1.

Final notes:

  • Have you been keeping up with Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee?
  • With just 2 calories per 8 ounce cup and no fat, coffee is a guilt-free health booster.
  • More than 2 – 3 cups of coffee a day may increase blood pressure, so check with your doctor before going for a 4th or 5th cup.
  • Coffee may be the biggest source of antioxidants in the western diet, outranking fruits and vegetables.
  • Don’t forget to make Oat Brancakes for spring cleaning!

      Thanks! Just enjoyed switching to mango instead of apple. It’s the kind of breakfast that doesn’t weigh you down. (Now I tried a clementine – my new fav!)
