cooking quinoa in a rice cooker (Quinoa)

In case anyone else was pondering this age-old mystery, I tried it tonight, and it didn't work too well.

The quinoa was done before the rice cooker thought it was, and my rice cooker will require a thorough soaking before I attempt to scrub the little quinoa klingons off the bottom.

I suppose it is called a rice cooker for a reason, but I am lazy and just had to know if it was probable.

I always throw mine into the microwave, as far as quinoa is concern. It's alot faster.

The ratio is oridinarily 1:2....it only takes about 10 to 15 minutes max.  Most rice cookers don't shut off that fast so make sure you're watching it.  Let us know how it works.
