Quinoa Cherry Tomato Breakfast

A quick recipe with superfoods in a cute little mason jar...sounds good to me! Quinoa is known as a superfood (or a supergrain) - it is high in fiber and packed with protein (perfect for vegans!). Since quinoa has a light and nutty flavor you can almost mix it with anything...since it is so easy to work with I cook enough quinoa for the week and use it in my salads or as a side with some salmon. 

Ingredients:

• 2 tbsp cooked but chilled quinoa (I always have some pre-cooked in my fridge)
• 2 tbsp of cottage cheese
• 1 tsp of flax seeds
• 5-6 cherry tomatoes; halved
• salt 

Directions:

• Pour quinoa into mason jar first. Then cottage cheese and sprinkle flax seeds on top of cottage cheese. Then place halved tomatoes on top of cottage cheese with a dash of salt.

Optional: Before I begin eating I like to mix everything together but I like to pour ingredients in the order listed above for presentation. So corny, I know!
