Zucchini, Ham, and Cheese Quinoa Cups

This grab-and-go, savory breakfast has just the right amount of ham and sharp cheddar cheese to be packed with flavor but stay low in calories. They are fantastic for meal prep and they reheat well in a microwave or toaster oven.

Tip: For meatier chunks of ham, use thick sliced deli ham and cut into cubes. Any good quality sliced ham or Canadian bacon will work.
