Ingredients

  • 200g (1 cup) quinoa, rinsed and drained
  • 500ml (2 cups) unsweetened apple and blackcurrant juice
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 250g raspberries
  • 250g blueberries
  • 250g strawberries, hulled and halved
  • 2 tsp lime or lemon zest, plus extra
  • 1 tbsp finely shredded mint
  • 200g low-fat plain or fruit-flavoured yoghurt
  • 1 tbsp pure maple syrup (optional)

Method

1. Put the apple and blackcurrant juice and quinoa into a saucepan and add the cinnamon stick. Bring to the boil, then cover and simmer for 12-15 minutes, or until quinoa is translucent and the juice has been absorbed. Remove the cinnamon stick. Transfer to a large bowl, cover and refrigerate until cold.

2. Add the berries, lime or lemon zest and mint to the quinoa and gently fold through. Spoon the mixture into 4 bowls. Top with a large dollop of yoghurt and a little maple syrup, if desired. Serve chilled.
