Cheesy Quinoa Bites

Haven't made these yet, but they look yummy to me....maybe instead of a falafal  in a pita with cucumber yogurt dressing?

Cheesy Quinoa Bites
adapted from So Very Blessed

2 cups cooked quinoa
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 medium carrot, shredded
2 scallions, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper

Preheat oven to 350 F. Lightly spray a mini muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.

Stir all of the ingredients in a medium bowl until well combined. Use a small cookie scoop or tablespoon to divide the mixture evenly among the wells of the pan - you can fill them all the way to the top. Lightly press down to make sure each well is packed.

Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the bites are golden and set. Remove from the wells and serve, with dipping sauce if desired.
