It’s been unusually cold here in Austin, Texas lately. Generally speaking, we don’t get the first ‘cooler’ bits of weather until Halloween. But, this year we’ve already been in the 40’s - which is completely fine with me. I love Fall weather and I am always more than thrilled to get anything below 80 in October. It means that I get to use my oven and stove again without regret!

With it being cooler, overcast, and raining off and on, I thought it was high time for a nice warm hearty breakfast. And that’s exactly what this Fall power bowl is all about! I loaded this breakfast bowl up with plenty of good stuff. Quinoa, fruit, nuts, seeds, and just a touch of cinnamon to add further to the warmth of the flavors.

If you like Fall, and the flavors of Fall as much as I do, then you are going to love this breakfast ‘cereal’. While this power bowl is lacking on guilt, it’s full of texture and warm flavors.

This is a breakfast that can be easily made ahead to have on hand for a few days worth of breaking-the-fast. Which for me, is always one of the hardest meals of the day to eat right. Let’s face it, mornings are chaos incarnate and it’s usually so much easier to just grab something easy and not as healthy to tide us over. That’s why I like to have my breakfast prepared and ready to go so that I’m not tempted to skip out or indulge!

My favorite way to enjoy this is with some vanilla almond or pea milk and a drizzle of local honey on top. If you want a boost of honey flavor, try adding a sprinkle of bee pollen on top too!
