Quinoa and Coconut Milk

Nutrition & Movement

This is a simple, refreshing dessert for any time of year. If you buy gluten-free quinoa, you can make this a gluten-free dessert, but check your package labels because not all quinoa products are gluten-free.

Ready In: 2 Hrs 30 Min

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup quinoa
  • 10 fluid ounces unsweetened coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 mango
  • 1/2 cup frozen raspberry coulis
