Quinoa, Butternut Squash & Gorgonzola Burgers

A super simple recipe for meatless Monday.

This recipe serves 2.

Ingredients:

For the patties:

2 cups of cooked quinoa

1 butternut squash

3 eggs

1 cup of panko

½ teaspoon of salt

¼ teaspoon of onion powder

¼ teaspoon of garlic powder

¼ cup of chopped chives

150gr of gorgonzola, crumbled

Extra:

Olive oil for pan-frying

Optional:

Fried sage leaves

Extra Gorgonzola for serving

Peel and shred the butternut squash. Then squeeze it to get rid of some of the moisture. In a bowl, mix the butternut squash with the remaining ingredients for the patties.

Heat up about ¼ of a cup of olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.

Place about 3 tablespoons of the quinoa mixture in the hot pan to form each patty. Fry them until golden on both sides.

I like to serve them with extra Gorgonzola and a few fried sage leaves.
