I had the TV on the Food Network before running off to my next engagement today and Recipe to Riches happened to be on and I heard the words “quinoa bites” so I Googled it and found tons of recipes! So tonight I made these little gems:

I used this recipe as my guide, but, as you might have noticed, I’m not very good at following recipes; so below is a basic guide for what I did.

1 C White and Red Quinoa (cooked)
1 Grated Carrot
1/2 Grated Small White Onion
1/3 C Grated Parmesan Cheese
1/2 C Chopped/Crumbled Frozen Kale
Garlic & Chili Powder to taste (frankly, I was too lazy to peel and crush a garlic…)
Salt & Pepper
1 Egg (beaten)

Combine everything except the Quinoa and Egg in a large mixing bowel
Add the Quinoa and mix
Poor beaten Egg over the mixture
Scoop into muffin cups (I use silicone ones)
Bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes (until lightly browned)
Pull out of the oven and cool on a cooling rack
Enjoy!
