Tuna and Rice Muffinlets

This is a fantastic toddler food as well as one of my favorite comfort foods. It is excruciatingly simple, too!

2 c. cooked rice
1 c. shredded cheddar
1 can tuna
3/4 c black olives (diced)
1 Tbsp dried minced onions
1 Tbsp parsley flakes
1 tsp salt
2 eggs, beaten
2 Tbsp milk

Beat eggs and milk together. Mix all "dry" ingredients together and add the eggs and milk. Spoon into a muffin pan, either greased or lined with cups. Bake at 375 for 15 minutes. Makes 12.

I like using wild rice or brown rice for these. They also freeze very well, so it's easy to make them in bulk and take them out as needed for toddler lunches.
