Eat, Read, and Be Mommy

I was looking for a way to use some leftover cooked quinoa the other day when I came across these Chocolate Chip Quinoa Muffins; since I had the ingredients and it looked simple enough, I decided that they could be breakfast.  And while several of my kiddos went with thumbs middle, I don’t really care, because I’m definitely going to be making these again.  They were incredibly filling–huzzah, quinoa!–with a moist, chocolate-studded appeal (okay, I may have at least one-and-a-halved the mini chocolate chips).  I used regular yogurt, because it’s what I generally have, and regular brown sugar and whole wheat flour, because ditto!  I’m always incredibly generous with vanilla–thankfully, the price of Mexican vanilla makes that possible still–and that was that.  If you want a filling, relatively healthy muffin that tastes amazing warm with a slather of salty butter, this is the recipe for you.  If you don’t…why not?
