What goes in

• 2 cups cooked quinoa
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup grated carrot
• 1 1/2 cups chopped broccoli
• 1/2 teaspoon salt, feel free to omit if feeding littles

How it comes together

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. In a blender or food processor, blend together broccoli and grated carrot until finely chopped.
3. Mix together chopped veggies, cooked quinoa, eggs, shredded cheese and salt in a wide bowl. Divide quinoa mixture evenly into two mini muffin tins sprayed with cooking spray. You could also use a small cookie scoop to evenly distribute the mixture into the muffin cups. Make sure to press each one down so that the bites hold together.
4. Bake quinoa bites for 15 to 20 minutes, or until lightly browned. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving and enjoy!
