Beetroot porridge with apple compote and tahini

Beetroot porridge with apple compote and tahini

Cooking time: 15 minutes | Servings: 4

A tasty and beautiful porridge that is perfect for breakfast or lunch. Good for longer hikes as the ingredients hardly weigh anything. The topping can be varied endlessly depending on what you like, have on hand and need at the moment. If you’re going on a very long hike, it might be a good idea to top it with nuts and even some dark chocolate.
