Quinoa Cookies- GF!

Quinoa you say?
Baking with Quinoa? Craziness I tell ya!
But SO delicious.
Thanks to my friend Paula's blog, Healthiest Regards, 
I found this fabulous recipe. Made a few tweaks, and here you go:

1.5 Cups Cooked Quinoa
1/2 Cup Peanut Butter
1/4 Cup Honey
1.5 Cup Old Fashioned Oats
1/4 Cup Gound Flax Seed
1 ride banana, mashed up
1/2 tsp Salt
Dash of cinnamon & a dash of nutmeg
GF, Dairy free, Mini Chocolate Chips
 Combine dry ingredients, except for the chocolate chips. Add wet ingredients. Mix. Add chocolate chips. Mix. Using a tablespoon, place dough on greased cookie sheet. Place in pre-heated oven at 350 degrees F for 18-20 minutes until cookies are browned on the bottom. Remove from the oven.  Let sit and cool before moving off of the cookie sheets (they tend to crumble, not as much when they cool down though)
Makes about 50 small cookies, if you're good and don't eat all the dough first!
