Quinoa Vegetable Balls

Quinoa Vegetable Balls


I made these on Easter to bring to my Granny's house as an appetizer. They smell and taste AMAZING! They are easy to make (after you get all your veggies chopped) and are very healthy too! You could even use these as leftovers to make a pita and hummus wrap. I served them warm with ranch dressing - we like ranch with everything!


Ingredients:
2 cups cooked quinoa
1/3 cup egg whites
5 carrots – shredded
1 ½ cups kale – washed and chopped
2 cloves garlic – minced
1/3 cup reduced fat feta cheese
1/3 -1/2 cup wheat flour
onion powder to taste
salt and pepper to taste


I went to the Farmers Market on Saturday morning and loaded up on fresh veggies!



Preheat oven to 350. Spray a cookie sheet or two with cooking spray.

In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients together. Mix until well combined.
Form small 1 inch balls with the mixture and place on cookie sheet. Bake for 22 minutes. Serve with low fat buttermilk ranch dressing.
