Okay, you know how much I love ANYTHING Quinoa, but this time, I actually received a request for a new quinoa recipe. I have been craving veggie burgers lately, so I thought this might be an interesting twist. Bringing high fiber and high protein together with great taste, this quinoa burger should hit the spot. A great thing about this burger is that it’s vegan and completely gluten free for those who have gluten allergy. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups cooked quinoa
- 2/3 cup hummus OR 1/2 cup mashed cooked chickpeas + 2 Tbsp water

- 1 tsp dried basil leaf
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme leaf
- 1/2 tsp gr cumin seed
- 1 tsp gr coriander seed
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 Tbsp brown rice powder OR vital wheat gluten

Directions:
- Heat a non-stick frying pan on med. low
