Butternut Cheddar Quinoa Patties

Source: Melody (Arizona)
From the kitchen of: Mrs. Davis (a good friend) 

Ingredients: 
  • 1 cup of quinoa, cooked
  • 1 cup of butternut squash, shredded
  • 1/3 cup of cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 tsp of sage, minced or rubbed (optional)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 egg, slightly beaten
  • 3 tbsp olive oil

Instructions: 
  1. Preheat the oven to 350. 
  2. Combine the cooked quinoa, butternut squash, cheese, and almond meal. Fold in the sage (if using), salt and pepper, and the egg. 
  3. Dollop 2-4 tablespoons of the mixture on to a lightly greased baking sheet. They can be made bigger to be a veggie burger or smaller to be more like a crispy ‘nugget’. Either way works as long as you are consistent on the baking sheet. Use a brush to brush on the olive oil. 
  4. Place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Flip them over and coat with more olive oil. 
  5. Bake for another 15-20 minutes until they are crispy on the edges and have baked through. 

Note: My sister is lactose intolerant and can’t have cheese. So, if you would like to make it dairy-free, don’t initially mix the cheese in. Instead, sprinkle the cheese on top of them at step 5. That’s what I do so that we can have some with cheese and some without. ​
