Chocolate Quinoa Bites

Ingredients

  • 1 cup cooked white quinoa, cooled (about 1/2 cup dry)
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter
  • 1 Tablespoon chia seeds
  • Dash of vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. After cooking quinoa and it’s slightly cooled, combine all ingredients in a bowl. (I get the other ingredients ready and mixed while I wait for the quinoa.)
  2. Line a baking sheet with wax paper
  3. Using a cookie scoop form 10-12 chocolate balls
  4. Place in freezer until set. Recommended storage is in the freezer, allowing several minutes for the ball to warm up at room temp prior to eating. I use basic freezer bags.
