Quinoa Pizza Bites- Gluten Free

When I first saw these I was a little skeptical I wasn’t sure how well they would turn out and if they would even taste good.   I had the opportunity to make them for a potluck and they were a huge hit! Not only did they taste amazing but they were really easy to make; prep time was maybe 10 minutes.  I would highly suggest trying them next time you have a potluck to go to and you aren’t sure what to bring.   I would cook these weekly, that’s how much I loved them!! 

Ingredients

2 cups cooked quinoa (Gluten-Free)
