Quinoa pizza. Make it for now, make it for later JUST MAKE THEM!

During our move we inherited a big bag of Quinoa from my mom... needless to say I am trying to find some kids friendly recipes that include Quinoa. 
One I have found that the kids **LOVE** are Quinoa pizza's.
They are easy to make, healthy, yummy and surprisingly they freeze fabulously! Oh and this takes under 30 minutes to make from scratch!  








Directions: 
Cook enough Quinoa to make 2 cups 
Preheat oven to 450 degrees
Grease muffin tin

Mix together: 
2 cups of cooked Quinoa 
2 eggs
1 cup of chopped pizza meat (ham salami, etc)
1 cup of other pizza toppings (chopped olives, green pepper, pineapple, etc) 
3/4 cup of mozzarella cheese
1 table spoon of minced garlic
1 table spoon of dried basil
1 teaspoon of dried oregano
pinch of salt

Place mix evenly into the muffin tin and cook for 15-20 minutes in the oven.
The tops should be lightly browned.

Remove from oven and serve warm with your favourite dipping sauce or place in a freezer bag to freeze for a letter date.

This recipe yields 24 bites


**This is a basic recipe if you want to add more ingredients remember to add in more liquid (eggs in this case) to ensure that they bind together when cooking**
