Quinoa Bites

These were really easy to make. You could put any kind of vegetables in them you want.  Next time, I would finely chop the spinach.

We bought a 4 pound bag of Quinoa at Costco. It says it is pre washed, but I don't believe it. Quinoa needs to be rinsed really well or it will taste bitter. I like to cook it in our rice cooker.

Ingredients

2 C Cooked Quinoa
2 Large Eggs 3 Carrots, shredded
1.5 C fresh Spinach, chopped
1 Medium Shallot, Chopped
2 tsp Garlic
4 oz. Cheddar Cheese
2 Tbls. Flour
Salt and Pepper to taste

Directions
Mix all ingredients together.

Place rounded drops of the mixture in a well greased muffin pan and firmly pack with your fingers.

Bake at 350 degrees 15-20 minutes.

Makes 24.
