- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped

Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour, baking powder, baking soda, sea salt, black pepper, dried oregano, and dried thyme until evenly combined.
-
In a separate bowl, blend Greek yogurt, eggs, olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, and minced garlic (if using) until smooth.
-
Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined—avoid overmixing.
-
Fold in cooked quinoa, crumbled feta, fresh parsley, and fresh dill, mixing gently to distribute evenly.
-
Spoon or scoop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing biscuits about 2 inches apart to yield roughly 12 biscuits.

Bake for 22-25 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
-
Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
-
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and reheat as needed for snacks or meals.

Enjoy these savory, protein-rich Mediterranean biscuits as a satisfying snack, alongside dips, or paired with salads and soups.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I meal prep Savory Mediterranean Herb Baked Quinoa and Feta Biscuits?
- Yes. Portion it into airtight containers and keep toppings, sauces, or crunchy finishes separate when that will protect the texture.
- How can I increase the protein?
- Add a little more quinoa or pair the recipe with a compatible high-protein side such as Greek yogurt, eggs, tofu, beans, or lean meat depending on the recipe style.
- Can I make it lighter?
- Use measured oil, lighter dairy or sauce options, and a larger vegetable portion while keeping the main protein amount steady.
- What should I watch when swapping ingredients?
- Keep moisture, salt, and cooking time in mind because high-protein swaps can dry out or firm up faster than the original ingredient.
Storage
