Ingredients

1 cup cooked quinoa
¼ cup gluten free breadcrumbs
½ cup shredded cheese
Handful spinach or kale, chopped
¼ cup chopped tomatoes
1 egg
½ tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp salt
1/8 pepper
2 tsp Italian seasoning
Pinch of red pepper flakes

Instructions

Cook quinoa as directed. I like to do 1 cup of quinoa to 2 cups of water or broth, but do it slowly to keep the quinoa fluffy.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Lay out a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray.
Mix all of the ingredients in a medium bowl. Roll into small quinoa meatballs, leaving about an inch between each on the parchment paper.
Bake for 13-16 minutes, turning halfway through for even cooking.
