In my house, we're divided into 2 groups: those who love toast for breakfast and those who only accept cereal. On the weekends everyone wants something different and special, so we like to play with the ingredients in our favorite desserts to flavor our cereals. This tiramisu recipe is absolutely delicious. You should precook the quinoa the day before so it's cold and ready for breakfast.
