IMG_1947Meal prepping is something that I try to do pretty much weekly. It’s super helpful for my busy schedule and makes eating healthy way more attainable. I usually make a bunch of quinoa or some other grain and eat it in salads, macro bowls, or in this case, as breakfast cereal. Quinoa is filled with protein, fiber, and omega-3s. These are macronutrients that keep the body nourished. Quinoa also contains phytonutrients such as carotenoids, flavonoids, and other nutrients that are known for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. This breakfast is super easy to make and sure to keep you going. Plus, the bee pollen is a nice touch of color and can help you beat seasonal allergies.
