Quinoa and Kale Cakes

Quinoa and Kale Cakes
(say that 10 times really fast lol)

I made these for my family on Easter and thought I’d share the recipe…easy to work in and stay on plan!

I’d split this up and eat it over a few days according to my meal plan to make it work. You can divide the recipe in half if that fits into your plan better too, obviously you’ll just yield 6 patties instead of 12.

400g quinoa (cooked)
2 cups water
2 whole eggs + 2 egg whites whisked
30g Parmesan cheese (optional)
1 small onion, sliced thin
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 cup steamed kale, chopped
100g breadcrumbs ( GF friends: use GF breadcrumbs or make your own)
1 teaspoon olive oil

Makes 12 small patties. Optional toppings: avocado, cilantro, lemon juice, salsa verde, garlic oil.
