When we previously began trying different things with an increasingly vegetable-based eating routine a couple of years prior, my better half was submitted yet doubtful. He prepared himself for a long, hungry month.

I consoled him that he was in great hands. I just overlooked one little detail: I really did not understand what I was doing.

In a considerable lot of our top pick, vegetable-based dinners, quinoa was the superstar. Quinoa (articulated sharp wah) is an old entire grain that is a finished protein. At 6 grams of protein for every serving, it is a filling, adaptable without gluten choice for a vegetable-based dinner. It very well may be utilized as a morning meal oat, in prepared merchandise, in plates of mixed greens, or as the fundamental dish.

How to make Quinoa Patties #vegetarian #quinoa



Ingredients :
  • 2 1/2 c. cooked quinoa at room temperature
  • 4 eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 t. salt
  • 1/3 c. finely chopped chives or green onions
  • 1/3 c. finely chopped yellow or white onion
  • 1/3 c. Parmesan cheese (goat or feta cheese is good, too)
  • 2-3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 c. bread crumbs
  • 1 T. olive oil, for cooking

Instructions :
  1. To cook quinoa: Combine 2 cups of well-rinsed uncooked quinoa with 3 cups of water and 1/2 t. of salt in a medium pot. Bring to a boil, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, until the quinoa is tender. (This will make more than you need for this recipe. Cool and refrigerate or freeze the rest for later!)
  2. To make quinoa patties: Combine 2 1/2 cups cooked quinoa, eggs, and salt in a medium bowl. Stir in the chives, onion, cheese, and garlic. Add the bread crumbs and let the mixture sit for 5 minutes.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. When hot, shape 12 1″-thick quinoa patties. They don’t have to be perfect. I’ve found the easiest way is to scoop 1/4 cup (use a measuring cup) of the mixture into wet hands, quickly press it into small patties, and slide it into the hot oil with a spatula.
  4. Cover and cook for 4-6 minutes until the underside is golden brown, flip, and repeat until the other side is also a golden brown and the quinoa patty is firm (cooked in the middle). Serve hot or cold with your choice of toppings, if any.
