3 crowns broccoli

¾ (227 g) block cheddar cheese

710 ml chicken or vegetable broth

6 eggs

3 English cucumbers

1 ½ cups quinoa

1 ½ medium red onions

black pepper

extra virgin olive oil

panko bread crumbs

red wine vinegar

salt

Instructions

In a medium saucepan, combine quinoa and broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and spread onto a baking sheet in a thin layer to cool.

Meanwhile, wash and dry the fresh produce.

Preheat a large skillet over medium heat.

Peel and small dice the onions; set half aside in a large bowl for the salad.

Once the skillet is hot, add oil and swirl to coat the bottom.

Add the other half of the onion to the skillet; cook, stirring frequently, until softened, 3-4 minutes.

Finely mince the broccoli (you should have about 6 cups). Add to the skillet along with the onion and cook another 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and set aside.

Grate the cheddar.

In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, onion, broccoli, cheese, panko, and eggs.

Form the quinoa vegetable mixture into patties using a ¼-cup measure, firmly pressing the mixture together between your hands.

Wipe out the skillet with a paper towel and heat over medium-high heat.

Once the skillet is hot, add oil and swirl to coat the bottom. Place the patties in the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes; flip and cook another 2-3 minutes, until golden brown on both sides. Work in batches if necessary.

Trim the ends of the cucumber; then thinly slice.

Add cucumber, oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper to the bowl with the onion. Stir to combine.

To serve, divide the quinoa patties and cucumber salad between plates. Enjoy!
