Tips:
- Prep Quinoa Ahead: Cook quinoa in advance and store it in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or freeze it for longer storage. This will save time when making the patties.
- Use a Food Processor: Using a food processor to chop the kale and other vegetables is a quick and easy way to get them finely chopped.
- Don't Overmix: Mix the patty ingredients just until they are combined. Overmixing will make the patties tough.
- Chill the Patties: Chill the patties for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help them hold their shape better.
- Cook Over Medium Heat: Cook the patties over medium heat to prevent them from burning.
- Use a Non-Stick Pan: Use a non-stick pan to cook the patties to prevent them from sticking.
