What Went Well?
The things that went well with this recipe was almost everything, almost. When were done before the bell! Hooray!! We made our hot breakfast and it was delicious. I was like a parfait but with oatmeal. I really enjoyed making and consuming this recipe.
What Didn’t Go Well?
.Things that did not go so well were when I went to take the lid of the pot, the steam rose to my face. It wasn’t the best feeling. Another thing was when I was washing the dishes I forgot to wear rubber gloves and my hand got really dry because of the bleach.
What Would You Do Differently?
I think I would do differently was maybe to make some more cause that was delicious. I’d probably add more yogurt and fruit. This is definitely a recipe I will make in the future.
What Did You Learn?
When making this recipe I learned what quinoa is, and how to cook it. I also learned that this recipe can also be made with honey or brown sugar and different fruits. I guess it all depends on what you like.
