My boyfriend is a huge fan of these quinoa breakfast cups! They aren’t only good in the morning either – they can easily be enjoyed as an appetizer or with a nice hot soup!
You will need the following ingredients:
- 1 cup uncooked quinoa
- 2 cups water
- 4 eggs
- 2 green onions
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- 1/2 cup bacon bits
- Optional: zucchini, parsley, peppers, mushrooms…anything really!
Makes 12 cups
Cook quinoa according to instructions on your bag. Mine asked for a 1:2 quinoa:water ratio. Bring water to boil on stovetop, add quinoa and bring back to boil, reduce heat to medium and cover for 12 minutes. Fluff with fork and let cool a bit!
Preheat oven at 350 F. Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl, adding cooked quinoa last.
Separate into greased cups, bake 20-25 minutes! Should be slightly brown on the edges.
