Quinoa Burgers

There are hundreds of quinoa burger recipes out there.  After researching all the different variations of recipes and trialing a few of them I have my very own.  These burgers are a great meatless option for vegetarians or even meat eaters who want something a little different.  I'm looking forward to grilling them this summer!

Ingredients:

1/2 c quinoa

3/4 c water

1/4 onion diced

1//4 carrot diced

15 oz can black beans, rinsed

3 Tbsp egg whites

1/4 cup bread crumbs

1/2 t Italian seasoning

1/2 T cumin

1/2 T paprika

garlic, salt, pepper to taste

First cook your quinoa, bring 3/4c water to boil and add quinoa. 

Cover quinoa, reduce to simmer and cook for about 10 -12 min

While quinoa is cooking dice onion and carrot

Once quinoa is cooked add all ingredients to a blender and blend until mixed well

Separate mixture into 6-8 patties and cook on a lightly greased skillet for 6-7 min on each side

enjoy!

Happy Cooking!
