Ingredients
- 1 cup cooked quinoa
- 2 eggs
- ½ teaspoon oregano
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ cup mozzarella cheese
- ¼ cup red onion finely minced
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 4 tablespoons avocado oil divided
Instructions
- Combine quinoa, eggs, oregano, garlic powder, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Stir in cheese and onions.
- Add the breadcrumbs, stir, and let sit for a few minutes so the crumbs can absorb some of the moisture. Use a ¼ cup measuring up to scoop, wet your hands with water and form them into patties. It should make about 10 patties
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place half of the quinoa patties on the heated pan and cook until the patties are golden color, about 3-4 minutes per side. Set aside and repeat with the remaining oil and remaining patties.

Notes
- The nutrition label is for 1 patty. This recipe serves about 4 people.
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. They will last up to 5 days in the fridge.
- Freezing Instructions: You can also freeze the patties before or after cooking them.
- Substitutes: For best results, follow the recipe as is. However here are some common substitutes that would work well in this recipe.
- Equipment: I love using my Cuisinart Smart Stick mini blender for making dips. It's quick and easy and gets me the perfect consistency, without any chunks of avocado and cilantro leftover.
- Serving Size: One serving is 1-2 patties with the dip.
- To freeze them prior to cooking, lay them on a flat baking dish in the freezer for at least 4 hours. When frozen, place them in an airtight bag. Thaw in the fridge overnight and cook per instructions.
- To freeze them after cooking, simply store them in an airtight bag after they've cooled. To re-heat, thaw in the fridge overnight and bake in a 350°F oven until heated through.
- Instead of eggs, you can use a flax eggs. For each regular egg, use 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed + 3 tablespoons water.
- Any type of shredded cheese can be used in place of mozzarella.
- If you prefer not to use breadcrumbs, you can use a gluten-free flour like almond flour or oat flour, or you can also use panko breadcrumbs.
