Quinoa and Northern Bean Burgers:
1/2 cup rinsed quinoa
- 1 medium carrot, cut in large chunks
- 6 green onions, thinly sliced
- 15 ounces great northern beans, drained and rinsed
- 1/4 cup plain dried breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten (use flax meal if you want to make this dish vegan)
- Coarse salt (to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon Ground pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Directions:
In a small saucepan, bring 3/4 cup water to a boil; add quiona, cover, and reduce heat to low. Cook until liquid is absorbed, 12 to 14 minutes; set aside.
2. In a food processor, pulse carrot until finely chopped. Add cooked quinoa, half the green onions, beans, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; pulse until combined but still slightly chunky.
3. Form mixture into four 3/4-inch-thick paties (dip hands in water to prevent sticking). If too soft, refrigerate 10 minutes to firm. In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium; cook burgers until browned and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes per side.

handeling meat is rough on me right now. I cant touch or look at raw chicken it was the same way with Aiden. I too slowed down on the meat after I had Aiden. It wasnt till I married Jake that Meat became a staple again. Jake has to do all the handling and prepping of chicken right now, its just too much for me to look at!
