Quinoa Burger
Ingredients
2 1/2 Cups Cooked Quinoa
1/2 Jar Calabrian Pepper & Sweet Tomato Fennel Spread
4 Large Eggs, beaten
1/2 Tsp Salt
1/3 Cup Chopped Fresh Chives
1 Yellow Onion
1/3 Cup Grated Parmesan
3 Cloves Garlic, finely chopped
1 Cup Bread Crumbs
1 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Bunch of Fresh Spinach
Combine the quinoa, eggs, and salt in a medium bowl. Stir in the chives, onion, cheese, and garlic. Add the bread crumbs, stir, and let sit for a few minutes so the crumbs can absorb some of the moisture. Form the patties to the size you prefer.
Heat the oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-low heat, add the patties, cover, and cook for 7 to 10 minutes, until the bottoms are deeply browned. Carefully flip the patties with a spatula and cook the second sides for 7 minutes, or until golden. Top each burger with a dollop of Bellisari's Calabrian & Sweet Tomato Fennel Spread and fresh spinach.
