Ingredients

  • 1 cup low-sodium vegetable broth

  • 1 cup dry quinoa, rinsed and drained

  • ¾ cup water

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, or more as needed, divided

  • 1 white onion, chopped

  • 1 zucchini, grated

  • 1 large carrot, grated

  • garlic powder, or more to taste

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • 4 large eggs, lightly beaten

  • ½ cup oat groats, ground into a powder

Directions

  1. Bring vegetable broth, water, and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender and broth has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Spread quinoa onto a large platter to cool.

  2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion, zucchini, and carrot in hot oil until the onion is translucent, 3 to 5 minutes; transfer to a plate to cool.

  3. Mix cooled vegetables with 3 cups of the cooled quinoa in a large bowl; season with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Pour eggs and ground oats into the bowl; stir until the mixture comes together. Divide mixture into 14 portions and shape into patties.

  4. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry patties in hot oil until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Use more oil between batches as needed.

Cook's Note:

I let them cool and put them in the fridge so my family can have healthy snacks throughout the week.
