Ingredients
  

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

1/2 cup cooked quinoa

1/4 cup rolled oats

1/4 cup mixed nuts (almonds, walnuts, or pecans)

1/2 cup fresh berries (blueberries, strawberries, or raspberries)

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional)

1 tablespoon chia seeds

A sprinkle of cinnamon (optional)

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish, optional)

Instructions
 

Begin by preparing your quinoa according to package instructions if it isn't already cooked. Allow it to cool slightly.

    In a medium bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired. This adds flavor and a hint of warmth.

      In a serving bowl or jar, start by layering the cooked quinoa at the bottom.

        Add the rolled oats next, spreading them evenly over the quinoa.

          Spoon the Greek yogurt mixture on top of the oats to create a creamy layer.

            Sprinkle mixed nuts over the yogurt, adding crunch and healthy fats.

              Top with a generous handful of fresh berries for a burst of color and antioxidants.

                Drizzle honey or maple syrup on top for natural sweetness, if using.

                  Finally, sprinkle chia seeds over the bowl for an extra protein boost, and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.

                    Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate for a quick grab-and-go breakfast.
