EASY VEGAN QUINOA & WHITE BEAN BURGERS (GLUTEN-FREE!)



Easy Vegan Quinoa & White Bean Burgers (Gluten-Free!) image

These easy vegan quinoa burgers come together quickly and easily using mostly pantry staples! The burgers are incredibly versatile-you can serve them over greens, on buns, or stuffed into pita bread. We love to slather them with Herbed Aioli (use vegan mayo for a vegan version) or hummus, and we top them with cucumbers, avocado, and greens. However they're also delicious with yogurt, feta, sliced tomatoes, or the classic burger fixings... the sky's the limit! You can either cook the quinoa as indicated below or use 2 cups of leftover cooked quinoa.

Time 50m

½ cup red or white quinoa (or 2 cups already cooked quinoa)
Salt
2 large garlic cloves
1 15- oz can white beans (navy or cannellini)
3 scallions, coarsely chopped (white and green parts)
¼ cup cilantro leaves (packed)
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Freshly ground black pepper

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided

Steps:

Do Ahead: The quinoa can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
  • In a food processor with the blade running, add the garlic cloves and finely chop. Add the white beans, scallions, cilantro, lemon zest and cumin. Season with salt and pepper. Process until the mixture forms a coarse puree, scraping down the sides. Add the quinoa; pulse to combine until a coarse paste forms. Transfer to a bowl, and stir in the peas and breadcrumbs. Form the mixture into 6 patties, and place them on a piece of wax or parchment paper. Do Ahead: The uncooked burgers can be covered and refrigerated for up to 1 day before cooking.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the burgers and cook until golden brown on the bottom, about 4-5 minutes. Flip the burgers, add the remaining tablespoon of oil and cook until golden on the other side.
  • Transfer the burgers to buns, pita bread or greens, and serve warm with the toppings of your choice.

GLUTEN FREE VEGAN QUINOA BURGERS



Gluten Free Vegan Quinoa Burgers image

This recipe comes from christensenka.squarespace.com I haven't tried it The result is dense, high-protein, super nutritious burger that could be jazzed up a million ways. The red quinoa and flecks of green parsley look lovely as well. Success! I'd like to try this recipe again, including grated carrot, finely diced onion, miced bell pepper, or something along those lines... I used the seeds raw, but you could toast them if desired for a nuttier flavor. Also, I kept the seasonings really simple, but you could add any combination of herbs and spices. Eat with your favorite gluten-free bread, sandwich fillings, and a side of veggies, or serve alone with a tasty dip! Or - here's a thought - make the balls really small and serve up like savory truffles...I'm doing that for the next party I host.

Time 40m

Yield 4-6 burgers, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup raw sunflower seeds
1 1/4 cups cooked quinoa
splash water
1 teaspoon seasoning salt or 1 teaspoon a splash tamari
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon dried onion flakes
any other herbs or spices, you'd like

Steps:

  • 1. Pulse sunflower seeds in food processor or blender until coarsely ground, until they resemble very coarse bread crumbs. You may have to grind your seeds in batches depending on how large your processor/blender is. Transfer ground seeds to large bowl.
  • 2. Place 1 c of the cooked quinoa, Herbamare, parsley/herbs/spices in the processor/blender. Pulse a few times with a splash of water, stirring between pulses, adding just enough water to get things moistened. You want a chunky paste to form, with some whole quinoa grains left over. Transfer quinoa paste to the bowl with the ground seeds.
  • 3. With a big spatula or your hands (my preference!), knead the quinoa and seeds together, adding the remaining 1/4 c of whole quinoa grain. It should form a slightly moist, sticky dough.
  • 4. Divide into 4-6 balls, and flatten into patties. Eat as is if you are in a hurry, or --
  • 5. Warm the patties for a crispy, nutty flavor --
  • 1. option 1 (no added fat): heat oven to 350. Line baking sheet with parchment, and bake until warm and golden, flipping as necessary.
  • 2. option 2 (crispy and delicious): heat sunflower oil in fry pan. When hot, fry patties until warmed through, and golden brown and crisp.
