Shopping List
- 1 (15 ounce) can light coconut milk
- 1 cup cooked quinoa
- 1/2 cup fresh blueberries (Note 1)
- 1/4 cup agave syrup
- 1 tablespoon tapioca starch (Note 2)
Instructions
- Step 1: Mash the berries with a fork or pulse in a processor until they resemble a chunky jam.
- Step 2: Whisk together the coconut milk, starch, and agave until smooth.
- Step 3: Pour the milk mixture, cooked quinoa, and mashed berries into a medium saucepan. Turn the heat to medium and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly. Once simmering, turn the heat down to low and continue to simmer for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring constantly. It will thicken as it cooks.
- Step 4: Remove from heat and transfer to a container to cool. Once fully cooled, place in the refrigerator for several hours to overnight. During this time, it will thicken to a pudding consistency.
- Serve: Grab a spoon and enjoy cold or at room temperature.
Recipe Notes
Note 1: Fresh berries can be substituted with 1/2 cup of your favorite unsweetened jam. Note 2: If substituting with cornstarch, you will need slightly less of it. Cornstarch is a slightly stronger thickener, so you will need approximately between 2 to 2.5 teaspoons.
