PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a 4x6 inch baking dish or small loaf pan with parchment paper.

• 2

  In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, egg whites, nutritional yeast, grated parmesan cheese, and hemp hearts.

• 3

  Stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper until the mixture is fully incorporated and the quinoa is evenly coated.

• 4

  Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and press down very firmly with a spatula to create an even, tightly packed layer about half an inch thick.

• 5

  Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the center feels firm to the touch.

• 6

  Remove from the oven and allow the bars to cool completely in the pan before lifting them out by the parchment and slicing into squares.
