  3. Could I use quick oatmeal or something like that in place of quinoa flakes? Can’t find them in our small town,

  4. I’ve made this a few times with frozen blueberries as the recipe calls for and really like it, especially how quick and easy it is to make on mornings where I’m too lazy or too hungry to make anything more complicated and time consuming. Today I decided to try making it with frozen raspberries instead along with some almond extract (plus the vanilla) and chopped pecans sprinkled on top…I absolutely LOVED it!!!
