For the Chocolate Quinoa Crunch Bites

• Add the dry quinoa to a hot, heavy-bottomed pan and shake frequently until popping slows, it will take 2-4 minutes. Transfer to a plate to cool.
• Melt the dark chocolate in the microwave in short intervals, stirring between each one, or use a double boiler on stove top.
• Reserve 1 tablespoon quinoa for topping(optional). Add the remaining popped quinoa and gently stir until evenly coated.
• Spoon the mixture into small clusters of approx 2 tablespoons onto a parchment-lined tray or into mini molds.
• Refrigerate until the chocolate is completely firm.
• Remove from the tray or molds and enjoy. Store the bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator. You can also freeze them in a freezer-safe container. Let them sit briefly before eating if you prefer a slightly softer texture.
