It came out better than I expected but the quinoa isn’t as moist as it appears in the picture.

I made the quinoa in my rice cooker and it turned out perfect! I made four servings so I could just reheat in the morning and top with berries. Good recipe – I will be adding this to my weekly meal prep.

Sounds good and I’ll try it but man, you hit one of my pet peeves with this one: Describe it as “Cooking time: 10 minutes” and then say to cook the quinoa for 20 minutes after bringing things to a boil? Come on: If I had the ingredients and didn’t read though the whole recipe ahead of time, I’d be pretty darn disappointed that breakfast would not be ready before I had to leave.
