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.

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!!
What temperature do you have the oven set to? 180 degrees?
