Prep Time: 35 minutes
Yield: 12 cups
Ingredients:
2 cups (300 g) cooked Nutrifam White Quinoa (about 1 cup uncooked)
1.5 cups (150g) shredded cheese (I use Gouda) + 1/2 cup (50g) extra for grilling
2 cups (200g) fresh spinach, or frozen (defrost, drained and excess moisture squeezed out)
3 eggs
½ tsp salt
1 Optional: garlic clove or a pinch of garlic powder
Instructions:
- Cook the quinoa.
- Heat the oven to 180° C (360° F)
- Briefly blend the fresh spinach and eggs in a blender or food processor. I like to keep some structure, but feel free to blend until you get a fine green mixture.
- Alternatively, you can also just chop the spinach leaves with a knife and beat the eggs separately.
- Mix all the ingredients in a large bowl and spoon into a well-greased muffin tray, or use silicone muffin cups to avoid sticking. Top with some more cheese.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes until the edges start to brown.
- Enjoy them hot, lukewarm, or cold, with some salad, raw or cooked veggies.
- They keep well in the fridge for a week and up to 6 months in the freezer.
