Spiced Quinoa Breakfast Bowl with Poached Eggs

This vibrant breakfast bowl combines protein-packed quinoa with aromatic spices, fresh vegetables, and perfectly poached eggs for a nourishing GLP-1 friendly meal.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup quinoa, rinsed
  • 2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups baby spinach, chopped
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 8 eggs, poached
  • 1 avocado, diced

Instructions

  1. 1

    1. In a medium saucepan, combine the quinoa and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes until quinoa is tender and liquid is absorbed.

  2. 2

    2. While the quinoa is cooking, prepare the poached eggs. Fill a large skillet with 2-3 inches of water and bring to a gentle simmer. Crack the eggs individually into the water and poach for 3-5 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
