These delicious quinoa balls are simple to make and are high in protein. A great vegan meat replacement, they’re made without eggs or dairy and are oil-free. They are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. They are perfect for kids and the whole family to enjoy. I made them with red quinoa, but you can use basic white quinoa.
It’s so convenient to have them in the fridge. You can enjoy them hot or cold, with sauce or without. They can be served with pasta, rice, or your favorite veggies.
