Looking for a nutritious and delicious way to enjoy a meat-free meal? These Quinoa Veggie Burgers with Cheddar Cheese, Carrots, and Sunflower Seeds are a perfect choice. Packed with protein from quinoa and eggs, and loaded with flavors from vegetables, cheese, and spices, these burgers are a satisfying meal for any time of the day.
- Rinse the quinoa thoroughly before cooking to remove its natural bitterness.
- Make sure to finely grate the carrots and finely chop the onions and garlic to ensure even distribution of flavors.
- Let the quinoa mixture cool slightly before adding the eggs to avoid scrambling them.
- Use wet hands to shape the burger patties; this will prevent the mixture from sticking to your hands.
- If the mixture seems too wet or too dry, adjust by adding a little more flour or a splash of water respectively.
- Cook the patties over medium heat to ensure even cooking and to prevent burning.
- For an extra crispy texture, you can bake the patties in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes after frying.
- Serve the burgers with a dollop of hummus, sliced avocado, and fresh lettuce leaves for added texture and creaminess.
These Quinoa Veggie Burgers with Cheddar Cheese, Carrots, and Sunflower Seeds are not only healthy but also bursting with flavors. They can be enjoyed on their own, with a side salad, or even in a bun with your favorite condiments. Happy cooking and bon appétit!
