Creamy Pumpkin Coconut Quinoa Breakfast Bowl

This Pumpkin Quinoa Breakfast Bowl is easy to make on the stove top, crock pot or instant pot. The pumpkin, coconut, quinoa, and maple syrup create a delicious balance of fats and plant based protein.
One of the tricks for making this dish so delicious is cooking the quinoa in milk.
I like to top mine with walnuts or pecans to add in more texture and a little crunch.
This is a great plant based meal prep recipe. Make it in advance and enjoy for days to come.
