Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked quinoa
  • ¾ cup breadcrumbs (can use whole wheat if desired)
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 cup chopped baby spinach
  • ¼ cup sriracha
  • 2 oz. goat cheese, crumbled
  • 2 large egg whites, lightly beaten
  • ½ tsp fresh lime juice
  • Pinch salt
  • 1-2 Tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  • Combine all ingredients, aside from the olive oil, in a large bowl.
  • Pour a tablespoon in a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Using your hands, form 12 patties with the quinoa mixture. Place patties on the skillet, working in batches if necessary.
  • Let quinoa patties cook for about 5 minutes before flipping and cooking another 5 minutes on the other side. Cakes should be lightly browned. Remove to a plate and continue cooking remaining patties. You might need to add another Tbsp olive oil to the skillet in between batches.
