Quinoa and Kale Patties. Recipe and Photos The Luminous Kitchen
Remember my mild obsession with quinoa? Well I have a great recipe for you today. These patties make a delicious, filling but light lunch. They are also great for lunchboxes and we all know how difficult it can be to conjure up goodies for lunchboxes when you avoid grains right?.
I served these guys with tzatziki and my capsicum humus (recipe here). You can serve them with normal humus or any dip really. Add a side salad and you have a great summers dinner as well.
You can omit the kale or use spinach in its place however this is one awesome way to bump up your goodness intake.
