Even people who are on the fence about quinoa tend to love them, especially the ones you see here. This version is sesame-crusted and boosted with lots of herbs and kale. That said, you can play around with a wide range of accent ingredients and cooking techniques. I initially featured a skillet-cooked version in my book, <a href=\"https:\/\/bookshop.org\/p\/books\/super-natural-cooking-five-delicious-ways-to-incorporate-whole-and-natural-foods-into-your-cooking-a-cookbook-heidi-swanson\/6706091\"><em>Super Natural Cooking<\/em><\/a> (2007), but you can bake them as well with great results, and that\u2019s what you see here.<br \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.101cookbooks.com\/baked-quinoa-patties-1.jpg?w=620&amp;auto=format\" alt=\"Baked Quinoa Patties\" width=\" 620\" border=\"0\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">How to Make Quinoa Patties<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Quinoa patties come together quickly, particularly if you have a few cups of leftover quinoa on hand. I always cook extra quinoa, knowing it will come together into a quick lunch if I plan ahead a bit. To make quinoa patties you simply combine cooked quinoa, eggs, herbs, breadcrumbs and seasoning in a bowl. The patties are shaped by hand and then baked or pan-fried. They can be enjoyed hot or room-temperature, and, either way, I love them with a bit of hot sauce.<br \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.101cookbooks.com\/baked-quinoa-patties-2.jpg?w=620&amp;auto=format\" alt=\"Quinoa patties on a baking sheet prior to baking\" width=\" 620\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>You can see the patties prior to baking above. And then after baking below. I like to sprinkle a few sesame seeds on top for added crunch. Really push them into shape using your hands so that they will hold their shape.<br \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.101cookbooks.com\/baked-quinoa-patties-3.jpg?w=620&amp;auto=format\" alt=\"Quinoa patties on a baking sheet after baking\" width=\" 620\" border=\"0\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Quinoa Patties: On the Go<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p3\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.101cookbooks.com\/baked-quinoa-patties-4.jpg?w=620&amp;auto=format\" alt=\"Quinoa patties in a bowl served with a side salad\" width=\" 620\" border=\"0\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Variations:<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">As long as your base ingredients (quinoa, eggs, onion, garlic, breadcrumbs) hold together into a patty, you can play around with different accents and ingredients.
