ahhh i’m so far behind on reading, but i had to comment here because this is GENIUS!!! charoset is the BEST food ever, and to incorporate it into a porridge … i don’t even have words. you are so smart!

You need to put a spoon or something next to the bowl for size comparison. Are those really giant raisins, or is it just a very small bowl? =)

I love (most) charoset!!! Like glammed up applesauce!! and i actually enjoy quinoa for breakfast. This looks delightful!

Heather – you know, I’m not sure. I actually don’t keep kosher, but like Hallie said, I don’t see why not! You’re so sweet to make raw brownies for your boss – yum!! I’d love the recipe!

Scoop – it was good, but nothing quite compares to oatmeal (or actually, my fave, oat bran)!

Hallie – it does take a long time! I think there are probably some ways to cut the time, but I was definitely like, ok are you ready yet? Haha. But since I doubled it, I get to just heat some up tomorrow! I’m thinking I’ll have it with almond butter. Ok, is it morning yet? Mmm, charoset. I need to remember to make it throughout the rest of the year, cause it’s good stuff!

I don’t see why you can’t have agave on Passover..but corn syrup is a no-no, so…hmm.

That porridge looks amazing! I have to try breakfast qunioa one of these days. I think the fact that it takes longer to make than oats is what turns me off to it.

And I LOVE charoset (but what’s not to love, really).

I never thought of making quinoa with a sweet twist, but I guess why not. Do you prefer it over traditional oats for breakfast?

Is agave nectar safe for passover? I have been trying to find out since I want to make some raw brownies for my boss since she’s missing the baked goods this week.

Also, quinoa porridge is one of my favorites! It’s always fun to switch up your breakfasts, and you can’t argue with a complete protein like quinoa. Yum.

Aww, you noticed!

I can’t wait. You are going to find me passed out at the kitchen table in a bread and oatmeal-induced coma, I swear!

I like how your porridge has a flower design on the inside- very creative. Bread is just moments away, my friend! Great recipe, I’ll have to try it.
