- Bring 1 2/3 cups water and the quinoa to a boil in a small saucepan. Reduce the heat to low, cover and let cook for 15 minutes. Leave the pot covered and remove from heat. Let sit for 5 minutes, stir and set aside.
- In another saucepan over low heat, stir together the peanut butter, honey, coconut oil, vanilla, and salt until smooth. Remove from the heat, stir in the almond meal, coconut, and reserved quinoa until combined. Let mixture sit off the heat until room temperature.
- Stir in the chocolate chips. Scoop cookies onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper using a cookie scoop or a rounded tablespoon. Flatten the dough slightly, then refrigerate until firm, about 40 minutes.
- Store in the refrigerator.
