Quinoa Fritters (Gluten + Dairy Free)

A great side to any meal. I usually pair my fritters with eggs and smoked salmon for a breakfast/lunch but goes really well with baked salmon or chicken at dinner. Or have it as a stand alone snack with a little schmear (try my fave from Primal Kitchen). Regardless, these are so easy to make. The preparation takes the longest but worth the wait.

 

SERVINGS: 8-12 fritters     PREP TIME: 30 minutes   COOK TIME: 20 minutes

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 cup of cooked quinoa
  • 3 medium eggs
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 medium carrot, grated
  • 1/4 cup cilantro, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup basil, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup chives, chopped
  • 1/4 cup almond, brown rice or coconut flour
  • 4 Tbs coconut oil or coconut spray
  • 1/2 tspn turmeric powder
  • sea salt and pepper, to taste

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Mix all ingredients into mixing bowl.
  2. Generously spray fry pan or griddle with coconut oil.
  3. With a medium size wooden spoon, scoop mixture onto pan and press lightly to flatten. Place as many as you can fit without edges of fritter touching each other. Cook until both sides are lightly golden brown and crispy.
  4. Serve and enjoy!
