Cheesy Quinoa Bites

My brother-in-law John gave me some Quinoa for Christmas one year.  I was browsing Pinterest and found a recipe that used it!  These were really good and easy to make.  This recipe makes 12 servings.

Ingredients: 

2 cups cooked red quinoa

2 large eggs

3 Tbsp finely chopped onion

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp dried cilantro

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 Tbsp whole wheat flour

1/2 tsp seasoning salt

1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper

1/2 a jalapeno, finely chopped (or more to taste)

Directions:

1.  Preheat oven to 350F.

2.  Mix together all the ingredients.  Distribute mixture into a greased muffin tin, filling each cup about 1/3 full.

3.  Bake for 15-20 minutes.  Enjoy!
