Finding something healthy that my 6 year old will eat becomes increasingly difficult each week.  I have found that cute, bite sized food is perfect for her.  But, every day is different.  She loves broccoli, kidney beans and rice.  So, I am trying to venture out and create variations of her favorites that we will both love.

I love love love these Broccoli and Cheese Quinoa Bites.  They are loaded with vegetables and healthy protein and are absolutely delicious.  What's even better is that they freeze fabulously.  I make a batch of these and freeze them.  Then I can defrost them on the day I wish to serve them or pop them in the oven or microwave frozen.

So, what did Munchkin think of these???  She was sneaking them off the plate and running into the other room to eat them.  A chorus of "mmmm's" trailing behind her.  I think that's 2 thumbs up from her.  I joined her in the perfectly popable lunch and devoured at least 6 of them in one sitting.

Zucchini, broccoli, white beans, egg whites and quinoa are the stars of these little power house bites.  With added cheese for the perfect little toddler lunch or even a fabulous bite sized appetizer for your next girls brunch these are in my permanent toddler lunch rotation and I am sure they will be in yours too!
