2 Cinnamon Sticks
1/2 tsp Ground Cloves
Pinch of Salt
2 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
3/4 cup Pumpkin Puree

Directions:
First, clean your quinoa.
To do this, rinse it in a strainer under cold water. This will help to wash away any of the bitter taste.
In a large sauce pan or pot, add almond milk, cinnamon sticks, and ground cloves, and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
Stir in quinoa, cover and turn heat to low. Boil for 15 minutes, or until quinoa has fully absorbed the milk.
