The Weekly Steemit Health Challenge #7:Flan of Quinoa

The quinoa to be used as a cereal, is especially beneficial in the diet of people with celiac disease, since it does not contain gluten.

Also, because of its high fiber content and its greater protein intake compared to cereals, quinoa has a low glycemic index, which makes it ideal for people with diabetes or who wish to lose weight while eating healthy.

It is also a great help to control blood cholesterol levels, as its fiber and unsaturated lipids favor the lipid profile in the body.

1/2 cup cooked quinoa
1/2 cup whole-grain sugar
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
1/2 apple
1 tbsp cinnamon
Caramel: 2 tbsp. Integral sugar and water

Then cook half a cup of quinoa in a cup of water, over medium heat and without a lid for 15 or 20 minutes. Then turn off the heat, cover and let rest 15 minutes. That way I would be ready to use.
