Ingredients

7 servings
  • 1 cup uncooked quinoa
  • 2 cups water
  • 4 eggs (whisked)
  • 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese*
  • 3 large scallions (sliced thin)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup steamed spinach (chopped (frozen is fine))
  • 1 cup plain breadcrumbs (for GF, be sure to use GF breadcrumbs)
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

Steps

  1. Rinse the quinoa thoroughly and place the grains in a medium sauce pan with 2 cups of water. Bring the water to a boil and reduce to a simmer.

  2. Cook until quinoa is tender and has absorbed the liquid, about 20 minutes. Let it cool.

  3. In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, eggs, Parmesan, scallions, garlic, salt, steamed spinach, and breadcrumbs. Let everything sit for a few minutes to absorb the liquid. The batter should be moist, but not runny. Form patties 1/4 cup each.

  4. Heat the oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. In 2 or 3 batches, cook the patties covered for 8-10 minutes on each side, or until browned and golden.
