Parmesan Crusted Quinoa Patties

These crispy and flavorful quinoa patties are coated with Parmesan cheese and make a delicious vegetarian option for a main course or appetizer.

Ingredients - Serves 4

In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, Parmesan cheese, egg, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Form the mixture into patties, about 1/4 cup each, and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the quinoa patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the patties from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
Serve the Parmesan crusted quinoa patties hot as a main course or appetizer. They can be enjoyed on their own or served with a dipping sauce of your choice.
