Chocolate Chip Quinoa Muffins

Chocolate Chip Quinoa Muffins

These muffins are an incredible treat for vegetarians (and non-vegetarians alike, especially for Lent Fridays or Meatless Mondays) because they are chock-full of protein with all that delicious quinoa. But they’re still a slightly sweet breakfast muffin that even the kids love.

Quinoa and Kale Mini Quiches

Quinoa and Kale Mini Quiches

I love quinoa and kale and the kids love little muffin-like meals. So these Quinoa and Kale Mini Quiches were great to try at our house. The filling is actually fantastic all on its own before you add the eggs and bake it. In fact, I was tempted to eat it all like that: cheesy quinoa and kale…mmm…I might just have to make that its own recipe later on. These quiches also will be a great meatless option for Lent Fridays or a nice, unique green food for St. Patrick’s Day tomorrow.

Sweet and spicy savory dishes are a staple of various cuisines. This dish has Indian and Mediterranean influences [...]
