Tip
This recipe is an adaptation of Macaroni Muffins by Caroline Rigg
The 1 egg in her recipe is replaced with 1 TBSP chia seed mixed in 3 TBSP water (egg replacer)
I wanted to add extra nutrition with hidden veg. I simply used what was in my fridge. I imagine you could tweak with your own favourites e.g. zucchini.
In hindsight some of the wetter veg ingredients may work better having had a good squeeze in some paper towel to remove excess moisture before re-adding the the batter.
I turned my macaroni bites over onto a baking tray and baked for a further 6 min because the nearly 3 yr old thought it was too icky (moist on the bottom). In future, I will just bake the recipe a little longer e.g. 26 min instead of 20 (or so).
I made 11 today and had to hide 4 in the fridge because the rest disappeared so quickly!
Enjoy. If you try and like. Please rate and comment. Thanks Guys.

Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!
