If you have anyone in your family on a special diet this recipe is a great one especially for those allergic to eggs or gluten. It can also be made vegan by using a vegan cheese substitute. These kid friendly little cake patties are so yummy by themselves but would be great with some homemade hummus or as a burger substitute.
Ingredients:
4 cups cooked quinoa (follow instructions on the box)
2 cups of steamed chopped broccoli
1/4 cup tahini sauce
1/2 cup parmesan cheese grated
1/2 cup gruyere cheese grated
1 cup monterey jack cheese grated
3-4 tbs olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven at 450 degrees
Combine warm cooked quinoa with steamed broccoli in a bowl. Add the cheeses and tahini sauce. Mix together well and sprinkle in salt and pepper to taste. Cover your baking sheet with olive oil. Take a 1/4 cup of quinoa cake mixture and ball it up in your hand and place it on the baking sheet. Continue this until all the cakes are ready to be baked. Place in the oven at 450 degrees. Cook for 12-14 minutes on each side until golden brown. For a total of about 24-28 minutes.
Yields about 12 cakes
