Quinoa Patties {fab recipe alert}

So here we are. It's Meal Plan Monday again.
Unfortunately we do a LOT of repeats so I was afraid Meal Plan Monday would start getting boring.
I'm not a fan of boring.
So I'll post the rest of the meal plan below but first I want to share a fab recipe with you!
I found this recipe for Spring Herb Quinoa Patties.
We looooove quinoa and these sounded down right d-lish.
So I made a couple swaps, de-glutened and veganized and voila!
We have a new fave :)




Fresh Herb Quinoa Patties
{inspired by this recipe at www.two-tarts.com}

• 2 cups cooked quinoa (about 3/4 c. dry)
• 2 TB Toffuti vegan cream cheese
• 2 Tbsp chopped green onion
• 2 TB chopped mint (Optional. Sounds great but Hunter hates mint so I skipped it.)
• 2 Tbsp chopped parsley
• 1/2 c. grated soy cheese (mozzerella style)
• 1/2 c. gluten free bread crumbs
• 1/4 tsp garlic salt

Mix everything but the quinoa until well combined. 

Fold in the quinoa.

Heat a couple TB olive oil in a pan to med-high.

Form 2" patties with quinoa mixture and place them in the hot pan. 

Cook approximately 3 minutes on each side until lightly browned. 

Sprinkle with more grated soy cheese and enjoy! 

Preferably with a large glass of red wine :) 

 

And for the rest of the week:
