Carrot Cake Overnight Quinoa

I thought I was done with my quinoa series but I can’t seem to stop.
However, what else am I going to do with a 15lb. bag of quinoa?
This weekend I was playing around with different varieties of overnight quinoa.
This last one…I liked A LOT!
If you like carrot cake…then this is it!
