{"0":"Place the milk and cinnamon stick in a small saucepan over moderate heat and bring to a boil-be careful as milk can bubble up quickly and easily scorches. Stir in the quinoa and return to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let the quinoa and milk simmer about 15 minutes. Stir in the sugar and a pinch of salt and continue to simmer until all the milk is absorbed, another 8 to 10 minutes.","2":"Top the quinoa with milk, fruit, nuts, additional sugar, or whatever you like, and serve immediately.","4":"DO AHEAD: Breakfast quinoa can be prepared ahead, covered, and refrigerated for several days. To reheat, add some milk and warm it in the microwave."}
