SPINACH AND FETA QUINOA BITES #vegetarian #appetizers

These Spinach and Feta Quinoa Bites are ideal for engaging or supper prep – they make an incredible sound bite or canapé!

These Spinach and Feta Quinoa Bites here today are some additional uncommon however. Not exclusively are they madly scrumptious, yet they were made with twofold the affection… for my companion Bev of Bev Cooks who is (very soon) anticipating twins! To state that I'm upbeat and energized for Bev would be putting it mildly and I wish I could actually convey her a plate of these myself.

They genuinely make the ideal tidbit (er, lunch) and I've made them two or multiple times two or three distinct ways since. These Spinach and Feta Quinoa Bites were propelled by my preferred Greek dish Spanikopita and turned out phenomenal. They would be an ideal (sound) reduced down expansion to any social gathering, or just to have in your ice chest for a speedy nibble. Appreciate!
