Ingredients
  • 2.5 cups cooked quinoa
  • ⅔ cup crumbled feta cheese + 1 tablespoon of brine (from the cheese)
  • 1 cup cooked corn
  • 2.5 cups cooked spinach
  • 2 eggs
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • Olive oil for frying
  • 4 sprouted grain buns
  • 2 teaspoons homemade spicy mayo
  • Spring salad mix for layering
Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, combine quinoa, feta cheese, corn, spinach, eggs, cayenne pepper, sea salt, onion powder and garlic powder until incorporated. You may find your batter a bit loose which is fine.
  2. Place a skillet over medium high heat and grease with olive oil. Using an ice cream scoop or a ⅓ cup scoop, add the quinoa batter into the skillet and flatten. Fry both sides until golden brown edges form, about 1 minute per side. Repeat the process until your batter is finished.
  3. When ready, layer your burger buns with mayo, spring salad of choice, quinoa patties or any toppings of choice. Enjoy when ready.
