Quinoa Query

So I bought some because a) it’s cheap protein and b) it can be eaten at room temperature. These are important because I don’t have heating methods or refrigeration at work, and I prefer not to exist on a diet of granola bars and fruit, because it’s boring after a while.

But here’s a thing: I don’t think I know how to cook quinoa properly, I think. Because I made some and I was totally underwhelmed by Nature’s! Miracle! Food! Was it the slightly crunchy little ‘tails’? Or is it the fact that it has ‘tails’ that make me think of sperm? Am I just a lousy cook?

Help me eat more healthily, please. Help me like this food.
