Description

Ingredients

• 2 cups cooked quinoa (about 3/4 cup uncooked)
• 2 eggs
• 2 egg whites
• 1 cup shredded zucchini
• 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup diced ham
• 1/4 cup loosely packed parsley, chopped
• 2 Tablespoons shredded or grated parmesan cheese
• 2 green onions, chopped
• salt & pepper

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix to combine. Liberally spray a mini muffin tin with non-stick spray and spoon mixture to the top of each cup. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges of the cups are golden brown. Let cool for at least 5 minutes before removing from the mini muffin tin. To freeze: Place baked cups on a baking sheet then freeze until solid and transfer to a freezer bag. Microwave for 20-40 seconds depending on how many youre reheating. For regular-sized muffin tins: Bake for 25-30 minutes (Note: I have not tested full-sized muffins myself, although several readers have left comments saying this works!)
