Yum yum yum!

This was my first time cooking with quinoa and it was a success. I often add brown rice to beef patties so thought I would try this with chicken and quinoa. Make sure you really rinse the quinoa well. Google is scaring me with reports of not properly rinsing it and reactions.

These are a more blander patty so perfect for children or BLW babies. You can add a little spice mix of choice to give them a flavour boost. We serve ours with sweet chilli sauce so didn’t add anything extra than what the recipe states.

Notes

  • They are mild in flavour but suit us as we served these with salad (and sweet chilli sauce for my partner). You may want to add additional seasoning.
  • I found smaller patties worked better than big patties.
  • Add any vegetables you like.

    Yum, yum, yum!!!!! I made these lower in salicylates (used a brussel sprout instead of carrot and FAILSAFE veg stock) and they were a hit!! Even hubby loved them. Thank you so much for sharing. They will now be a regular in our house and especially for school lunches. Served with pear chutney – DELISH!!
