Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups quinoa cooked, I like to use a mixture of red and plain quinoa
  • 3 eggs beaten
  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 cup kale roughly chopped
  • 1/3 cup feta cheese low-fat
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1/2 teaspoon cajun seasoning
  • 1/2 onion finely chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees and lightly grease a baking sheet. Set aside until ready to use.
  • In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients and mix well. I like to use my hands when mixing so that the moisture from the eggs soaks into the other ingredients. If the mixture is too wet, add a little flour and they hold together well.
  • When well combined, form the mixture patties about 3 inches in diameter.
  • Bake for 17 minutes, flip each patty and bake for and additional 5 minutes.
  • Allow patties to cool before serving.

  1. In your paragraph above the recipe you state that you mix in feta cheese, yet it is not listed as an ingredient. Is that a preference, or was it just left out by mistake?

    1. Debbie, Thanks for letting us know. The feta is now added to the ingredient list. It's supposed to be included, but does not have to be.
