Gluten Free, Mains

Meatless Monday – Quinoa Burger

June 16, 2014

Quinoa is my preferred grain, as it is gluten free and packed with nutrients, especially high in protein. Sometimes there is some leftover quinoa. Here is what you can do with it. I’ve found this recipe on the O.A. Quinoa box and modified it a bit. The original recipe calls for parmesan cheese, but I replaced it with nutritional yeast instead for some Vitamin B12 and cheesy flavour.

  4. Bake them in the oven at 180 Celsius for approx. 10-12-5 minutes, until golden brown.
