Quinoa Blueberry Pancakes

This is one delicious "superfood" breakfast. The blueberries are packed with anti oxidants and the quinoa contains all the Essential Amino Acids (EAA's) making it a complete protein. These pancakes are extremely wholesome and hearty, so I think you need the sweetness of the sauce to lighten things up a bit. You could also add some agave syrup or maple syrup for a little extra sweetness. For this recipe, I soaked the batter overnight as this softens the grains and makes them more easily digestible. I used cow's milk, but you could make these dairy free by adding rice or almond milk.
