    These vegetarian patties make a delicious main, perfect with an egg on top or serve them along a salad. And because they make a lot, they are also great to make ahead for meal prep! If you love quinoa, you may also like Salmon Quinoa Burgers, Quinoa Huevos Rancheros Bowls and Southwestern Black Bean Quinoa Mango Salad.,Alt=,These Spinach and Quinoa Patties make enough for several meals which makes them perfect for meal prep. I had one topped with a poached egg for breakfast which was super yummy. The rest I served as a main course for dinner with a big avocado salad and felt quite satisfied. I cant help thinking how good this would be with melted cheese on top in place of a burger to make it more of a veggie-quinoa burger.,Swap the spinach for kale,Make them dairy free by swapping the Parmesan cheese for nutritional yeast.,If you prefer to bake them, Bake in a preheated oven 375 for 8 to 10 minutes on each side.,Quinoa Huevos Rancheros Bowls,Southwestern Black Bean Quinoa Mango Salad,Salmon Quinoa Burgers,Quinoa Fried Rice,Mediterranean Quinoa Salad
