Quinoa and chia seeds flatbread with vegetables

You would be surprised if I told you that I love flatbread! However, I don’t think of traditional ones, baked from gluten-containing flour in the oil, but of those made of quinoa and chia seeds. Yes, I created a recipe for these delicious snacks for all of us who strive for a balanced gluten-free diet without additives. You can eat them with vegetables, as desired. Enjoy!

Preparation time: 60 minutes
Servings: 10 pieces

Ingredients:
1 cup uncooked quinoa
¾ cup water
3 tbsp chia seeds
2 tbsp olive oil
a pinch of salt

Serving ingredients (optional):
Hummus
Carrot, grated
Avocado, sliced
Green pepper, cut into rings
Baby mix salad

Instructions:
1. Cook the quinoa by following packaging instructions.
2. Mix chia seeds, olive oil, salt, and cooked quinoa, then stir until combined. Add ¾ cup of water and stir again. Leave the resulting mixture to cool down for 2-3 minutes.
3. Put the mixture in a blender and blend until quinoa is chopped by 50%, for about 30 seconds. In this step, the dough should look like a thick paste with quinoa pieces.
4. Line the large pan with baking paper and pour the dough into it. Using a glass, shape the resulting dough into flatbreads sized about 12 cm and bake in the oven at 180 °C for about 20-23 minutes, until the edges are firm enough.
5. Leave the baked flatbreads to cool down, then spread hummus over them and arrange baby mix salad, grated carrot, avocado slices, and green pepper rings on top.
6. Serve and enjoy.
