Recipe Summary Mom's Quinoa Burgers
I made these with leftover quinoa and some vegetables I had in the fridge. Super easy! Great on a multigrain bun with some tomatoes, spinach, and your favorite spread! My 2 1/2-year-old said, I love it Mommy! If necessary, while frying, flatten the burgers with the back of your spatula (but don't make them too thin).Ingredients | Quinoa Veggie Burger Wellsley Farms1 ½ cups water¾ cup dry quinoa2 tablespoons olive oil, divided¼ cup chopped onion2 tablespoons chopped celery½ cup chopped zucchini¼ cup chopped yellow bell pepper¼ cup chopped red bell pepper1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic3 tablespoons whole wheat flour, or more if needed1 eggsalt and ground black pepper to taste1 dash cayenne pepper½ cup shredded mozzarella cheeseDirectionsBring water and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan.
