  • Recipe Submitted by on

 Ingredients List

  • 1 cup uncooked Ancient Harvest Quinoa
  • 3 large eggs
  • 3 large egg whites
  • 1 cup spinach, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
  • 1 small red bell pepper, diced
  • ¼ cup diced red onion
  • 1 ripe avocado, diced
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • Freshly cracked black pepper
  • Optional: 1 jalapeño, seeded and diced
  • Optional: 1/2 cup shredded cheese of your choice

 Directions

Place quinoa and 2 cups of water in a small pot over high heat. Bring to boil, cover, reduce heat to low and cook quinoa for 15 minutes or until all the water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and transfer to a separate bowl to cool for 5-10 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 12 cup muffin pan with muffin liners and generously spray the inside of each liner with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, beat together eggs and egg whites. Fold in veggies, onion, avocado, salt and pepper and jalapeño and/or cheese (if adding). Fold in cooled quinoa. Divide evenly among prepared muffin pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until egg is set and edges are barely golden brown. Cool in pan for 5-10 minutes then immediately transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling. Store in fridge tightly wrapped or in a container; these will keep for 5-7 days.
