Quinoa and Zucchini Burgers
Ingredients
Serves 4
- 1 1/2 C cooked quinoa
- 1 medium zucchini, grated
- 1 C chopped mint
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 C gluten-free flour (all-purpose flour works)
- Sea salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Optional: avocado, onions, lettuce, tomato vinaigrette
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the quinoa, zucchini, mint, eggs, flour, salt and black pepper. Flour your hands and gently form the mixture into 4-5 patties about 1/2″ thick.
Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a cast-iron or nonstick skillet and cook the patties on medium heat. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until the patties are golden in color. I served mine with tomato vinaigrette, some smashed avocado, and lettuce.
