Review

I made mistake about I didn’t cook the quinoa perfectly, I thought it was already cooked. Cause, the Oat was too small and very thin. So I didn’t think it was good combination.  So, I re-made quinoa only for next breakfast.

And I searched more information about quinoa , Re-make only quinoa 

1/2 cups of Quinoa and 1 1/2 cups of water 

Rinsed the quinoa 

 

Put the water and heated up until boiling.

 

When it boiled, turned down the heat low, and cooked 13mins. (I was put too much water…)

DONE.
