Quinoa Pizza Bites

I was hooked on bite sized quinoa foods
and was on the lookout for even more!

So when I came across a recipe for Quinoa Pizza Bites,
I was not only excited but also became super hungry.
I couldn't wait to make them to eat and share with you guys!

If you thought the Broccoli Cheddar ones were simple to make,
you'll be happy to know that these are just as easy,
if not even easier to make!!

Keep reading and I'll show ya how! 

The Goods:
Cooked Quinoa
Mozzarella
Pepperoni
Eggs
Onion
Garlic
Paprika
Seasoning Salt
Oregano
Fresh Basil
Marinara Sauce

In a large mixing bowl, add all ingredients except for marinara sauce.

Mix everything up so it's well incorporated.

Distribute mixture into greased mini muffin pans, filling completely.
Press mixture down with hands to compact.

Bake at 350 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes,
until tops are crisp and a little golden in color.

Remove from muffin pans and serve with warmed marinara sauce.

Dip a pizza bite into the sauce and enjoy!

And because they're so tiny, go ahead and have another!!!
