Quinoa Muffins
1 cup cooked quinoa
1/4 cup canola oil
2 cups all purpose flour
3/4 cup packed brown sugar (I like Splenda baking variety)
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 cup raisins
3/4 cup low fat milk
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract

Combine all and mix well.  Pour into greased muffin pans.  Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes.

I made these today and they were so yummy!  Even my kids ate them with a bit of honey drizzled on them.  The great thing about these muffins is you can customize them as you like.  If you don't like raisins, try 1/2 cup walnuts with 1/2 cup dried blueberries.  If you want to add a bit more fiber, use 1 cup whole wheat flour and 1 cup all purpose flour. 

So there you go, another great recipe with quinoa!  

Have a Healthy Week!!!!!!!!
