Place quinoa in a fine-mesh sieve and rinse well with cold water. Heat a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add quinoa and lightly toast, stirring frequently, until the grains are separated and smell fragrant, about 2 to 4 minutes. Then stir in milk, water, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Bring to a boil. Then reduce heat to maintain a simmer and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the quinoa is tender, about 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in honey and vanilla. You can also do this in a rice cooker. Whisk egg white in a small bowl with 1 tablespoon of the hot cereal. Repeat with 5 more tablespoons until the egg white is completely incorporated. Stir in raisins. Return the cereal to the saucepan and cook, stirring, over medium-low heat until thickened slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Add blueberries and sliced banana.
