Crockpot 6 Grains Breakfast

When I serve this congee for my friends every Sunday, they like it. Because it is a healthy breakfast. I always suggest to my friends that they should include this meal in their lives at least once a week. The preparation starts the night before, and in the morning breakfast is ready. Having a hot steamy bowl of this congee will definite boost energy for that day.

Ingredients:
1/4 cup buckwheat
1/4 cup millet
1/4 cup lentils (green or red)
1/4 cup quinoa
1 red apple, chopped
1 stick cinnamon
1/2 cup dried fruit, such as raisins, cranberries, and cherries
2 ½ cups water
1/4 cup oatmeal
2 tbs Chia seeds
1/8 tsp salt
1/2 cup cooked corn
1/2 cup cooked beans

Directions:
In a 4 qt. Crockpot, combine all the ingredients except the oatmeal and Chia seeds. Turn to low and let cook overnight.

In the morning, add Chia seeds and oatmeal, corns and beans. Continue to cook for 30 minutes on low heat or turn high for 15 minutes.
