Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup cooked quinoa cooled
  • 1 egg beaten
  • Salt and pepper

Suggested Flavorings

  • ¼ tsp garlic salt
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

Instructions
 

  • Add all ingredients to a bowl and mix until well combined. Add any flavorings as desired.
  • Heat a large skillet with some oil (adding more as needed), and place teaspoon size balls (a small cookie scoop or melon baller works great for making the perfect portion) into the hot skillet – pressing the balls down gently to flatten slightly.
  • Cook until golden on both sides.

Notes

To cook quinoa, rinse 3/4 cup of quinoa and place in a covered pot along with 2 cups of salted water. Bring to a boil, reduce then simmer about 12 minutes or until quinoa is tender. Drain and spread out onto a baking sheet to cool.
