Zucchini Quinoa Cakes
So recently everyone has been talking about the popular superfoods: kale and quinoa, which, before this past year I can honestly say I had no idea what these two foods were. After reading more about them, and adding kale in the smoothies and salads, and making my own quinoa recipes, I have fell in love with them! They don’t have much flavor unless you know what to add to them. Like my first salad recipe I posted, I had a chopped kale salad, but if you aren’t used to that flavor alone, you can also add some chopped lettuce as well. I found this recipe on Pinterest and it’s delicious! Hope you enjoy.
Ingredients:
- 1 Tbsp mayonnaise
- juice of 1/2 lemon
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parslety
- 2 cups coarsely grated zucchini
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 1/2 tsps Old Bay seasoning
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
Directions:
- Put the zucchini in a strainer and mix in 1/2 tsp salt to drain out some of the water.
- Add the zucchini to breadcrumbs in a bowl.
- Mix other ingredients in a bowl and add to zucchini and breadcrumb mixture.
- Make small patties and fry to crispy on the edges. (A little bit of extra virgin olive oil is the best!)
SERVING SIZE: 4
