The Best Quinoa Patties
by Anthony Ribic
serves: 28
  One patty yields 48 calories, with 7.7 grams of carbs, over 3 grams of protein, and just 1 gram of fat.
Ingredients:
  2.50 cup(s)   cooked quinoa
  4   eggs
  0.33 cup(s)   parsley
  1   onion
  1 clove   garlic
  0.33 cup(s)   parmesan cheese
  1 cup(s)   bread crumbs
  0.50 teaspoon(s)   salt
Directions:
  Combine quinoa, eggs, and salt into a bowl.
Stir in the cheese, onion, garlic, and parsley. Whisk well until fully incorporated. Add breadcrumbs and stir in well. Let mixture sit for a couple of minutes so that the breadcrumbs can absorb the moisture.
Scoop two tablespoons of the mixture and form 1 ½ inch size patties (or use ¼ cup of mixture to shape larger ones).
Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet with a thick bottom. Add patties leaving some room between each. Cover and cook on medium to low heat for around 7 minutes or until the patties are browned.
With the help of a spatula, flip the patties and cook on the other side for 7 minutes. If there’s no browning, turn the heat up and cook until golden.
Remove from the skillet, cool on a wire while you cook the other patties.
