Meatless Friday Meal Recipe Linkup: Quinoa burgers with salad

By on March 9, 2012 in Meatless Friday

Quinoa Burgers- A recipe by Farmish Momma  (formerly known as Crunchy Catholic Momma)

2 cups quinoa
4 cups water
4 green onions, sliced thin green and white parts
4 cloves of garlic minced
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
4 eggs
1 small onion chopped fine
1 cup whole grain bread crumbs
2 tbsp soy sauce
salt and pepper to taste

Cook the quinoa in water according to directions,  cool the quinoa and mix with all the other ingredients in a bowl.  Drop 1/4 cup size balls onto a frying pan (I use my ice cream scoop half full) then smoosh them flat with the spatula.  Cook one and try it, if it needs more salt then add it and make the rest.  To cook, let them fry on one side on medium heat with a little bit of oil (just enough to coat the pan) until brown on one side, carefully with a spatula, flip it to the other side and let it cook until brown and crisped up.  Serve on a bun with some salad and enjoy.

after all this chopping my eyes were very teary…
compost pail ready to get dumped in the compost bin (do you all compost?)  These are all the things that we can’t give the chickens but would not want to waste by putting it in the garbage.
