Vegetarian Quinoa Black Bean Bites
One of my favorite recipes and perfect for meatless Monday! We try to limit our red meat intake to once/week in this house and try to add a vegetarian day as well. The added protein from the black beans and the quinoa really helps to fill up from these delicious little bites of yumminess! Plus, the kiddos love them, they’re quick, easy, and make for a great lunchbox treat too! Ingredients: 3/4c uncooked quinoa (I use Trader Joe’s organic white quinoa)1 can low sodium black beans3/4c salsa4-5 mini sweet peppers or 1/2 c diced green peppers 3/4 c shredded low-fat cheese1/2c frozen corn3 eggs2tsp garlic powder1tsp cumin1/2c chopped fresh…
