Salmon Quinoa Patties

Jana here with a recipe my whole family really likes!  These Salmon Quinoa Patties are really fast to mix up, and get ready for dinner. We like to eat them with sweet potatoes, and broccoli a lot of times! They are also good to freeze, if you want to double or triple the batch. They are packed with protein, and really delicious.

Salmon Quinoa Patties
(yield: 6-8 patties)

1 can salmon (remove the bones that are typically in the middle)
1 egg, lightly beaten
3/4 cup quinoa, cooked (I used a quinoa blend this time that included red quinoa)
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon Italian seasonings (or basil if you don't have this)
oil to cook (we prefer coconut oil)

1. Heat the oil over medium high heat in an electric skillet or medium size pan.

2. Combine all ingredients, and mix until well combined.

3. Form patties, and place in the oil to cook. Cook on each side for approximately 3-4 minutes or until they are browned. Flip, and cook the opposite side until golden brown.

Enjoy!
