READ THIS BEFORE YOU MAKE IT: This recipe was made using a 6qt Instant Pot. If your pot is larger, you'll need to adjust accordingly. Also, altitude can affect your cook time.
Mix quinoa, water and coconut milk, lime zest and lime juice in the pan of the instant pot. If you want to up the coconut intensity, add the coconut extract.
Cover with lid and turn valve to sealed position.
Cook on high pressure for 1 minute. Natural release for at least 10 minutes.
Serve quinoa in bowls topped with blueberries, blackberries and coconut chips. Add a splash of coconut milk if desired.
This will keep in the fridge for several days and freezes well, too. If it starts to dry out, just mix in some water or coconut milk before heating and up to serve.
