🥣 What It Is

A refreshing island-inspired bowl: coconut quinoa base, mango and pineapple, toasted coconut flakes, macadamia or cashew crunch, and a drizzle of lime yogurt. Light, energizing, and perfect for breakfast or a midday lift.

🧾 Ingredients (serves 2)

• Base: 2 cups cooked quinoa (simmered in half coconut milk, half water, pinch salt)
• Fruit: 1 cup diced ripe mango, 1 cup diced pineapple, 1 kiwi (sliced)
• Crisp & crunch: 2 tbsp toasted coconut flakes, 2 tbsp chopped macadamias or cashews
• Lime yogurt drizzle (SF): ½ cup Greek or coconut yogurt • juice & zest of ½ lime • 1–2 tsp allulose/monkfruit • pinch salt
• Optional extras: passionfruit pulp, chia seeds, fresh mint

✍️ Method (15–20 min)

1. Cook base: Simmer quinoa in coconut milk/water mix until fluffy and lightly creamy (15 min). Cool slightly.
2. Prep fruit: Dice mango, pineapple, slice kiwi. Toast coconut flakes lightly in a dry pan until golden.
3. Make drizzle: Whisk yogurt, lime juice, zest, sweetener, and salt until smooth and pourable.
4. Assemble: Coconut quinoa → fruit → toasted coconut + nuts → drizzle with lime yogurt → garnish with mint or chia.

🌿 Maker’s Notes
