Quinoa/Kale Patties
10 to 12 patties
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 cup finely choppe kale
3 cloves minced garlic
1 tbsp olive oil
2 cups cooked quinoa
3 eggs, whisked
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
2/3 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 tsp sea salt
Pepper to taste
2-3 tsp. olive oil - remaining amount
Chop onion, kale (discarding tough stems), and garlic. Saute in 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat until soft.
In a bowl, mix quinoa, eggs, cheese, bread crumbs, salt and pepper with saute vegetables. Mix well and let stand for 5 minutes.
Heat remaining oil. I find a cast iron pan works best. Form patties with wet hands to preventing sticking. Cook over medium heat until browned on both sides.
I vary it by sometimes adding feta or fresh mint.
