Little Quinoa Patties

Epicurious

yield: Makes 12 little patties

A great way to use up leftover quinoa!

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups/12 oz/340 g cooked quinoa, at room temperature

4 large eggs, beaten

1/2 teaspoon fine-grain sea salt

1/3 cup/.5 oz /15 g finely chopped fresh chives

1 yellow or white onion, finely chopped

1/3 cup/.5 oz/15 g freshly grated Parmesan or GruyÃ¯Â¿Â½re cheese

3 cloves garlic, finely chopped

1 cup/3.5 oz /100 g whole grain bread crumbs, plus more if needed

Water, if needed

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil or clarified butter

Preparation

Combine the quinoa, eggs, and salt in a medium bowl. Stir in the chives, onion, cheese, and garlic. Add the bread crumbs, stir, and let sit for a few minutes so the crumbs can absorb some of the moisture. At this point, you should have a mixture you can easily form into twelve 1-inch/2.5cm thick patties. I err on the very moist side because it makes for a not-overly-dry patty, but you can add more bread crumbs, a bit at a time, to firm up the mixture, if need be. Conversely, a bit more beaten egg or water can be used to moisten the mixture.

Heat the oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-low heat, add 6 patties, if they'll fit with some room between each, cover, and cook for 7 to 10 minutes, until the bottoms are deeply browned. Turn up the heat if there is no browning after 10 minutes and continue to cook until the patties are browned. Carefully flip the patties with a spatula and cook the second sides for 7 minutes, or until golden. Remove from the skillet and cool on a wire rack while you cook the remaining patties. Alternatively, the quinoa mixture keeps nicely in the refrigerator for a few days; you can cook patties to order, if you prefer.

I haven't tried this yet, but I usually like Tyler's recipes. I may leave out the bacon, or at least part of it.

SPINACH BACON LASAGNE (Tyler Florence)

1 pound ricotta cheese
8 ounces finely chopped spinach, drained
1 tablespoon Romano cheese
2 eggs
16 no-boil lasagna noodles

Sauce:
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 cups whole milk, warmed
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup grated Gruyere cheese
1 cup grated Parmesan
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 cups shredded provolone
1 cup mozzarella cheese
1 pound bacon

Topping:
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Combine the ricotta, spinach, Romano and eggs in a medium bowl.
Pour 2 quarts hot water into a 13-by-9-inch baking dish. Soak the noodles until pliable, and then drain on paper towels. Pour out the water and dry the dish.

For the sauce: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan, and then whisk in the flour until a paste bubbles, but avoid browning. Slowly stir in the warm milk until the sauce thickens, and then bring to boil and stir in the nutmeg, red pepper flakes, salt and black pepper. Reduce the heat and cook 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in the Gruyere and Parmesan over low heat until melted, and then fold in the cream. Remove from the heat.

For assembling the lasagna: Spread 1 ladleful of sauce over the bottom of the baking dish, and top with 4 noodles. Spread approximately one-third of the ricotta mixture, one-third of the provolone, one-third of the mozzarella and a three-fourths ladleful of sauce on top. Repeat twice with layers of noodles and filling. Finish with 4 no-boil noodles and cover with the remaining sauce.

Cover with foil and bake 20 minutes. Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a large skillet until crispy, and then drain the bacon grease, reserving 1/4 cup. Crumble the bacon when cool enough to handle. Combine the bacon grease with the breadcrumbs in a small bowl, and then sprinkle on top of the lasagna with the Parmesan. Bake until top is brown, another 20 minutes, and then top with the crumbled bacon. Let cool 15 to 30 minutes, and then garnish with parsley and serve.

I posted an Iced Tea Syrup on Tuesday (recipe below) and I made it yesterday. I cut it in half, and since I don't like sweetened tea, I cut back the sugar. I used a little less than 1 1/2 cups sugar. It's very good! Still too sweet for me, so I'll tweak it to my taste. ICED TEA SYRUP Add 28 tea bags to 7 cups of boiling water. Steep for 15 minutes. Remove tea bags and add 4 1/2 cups sugar. Bring to a boil to melt sugar. Remove from heat and cool. Store in refrigerator in a closed jar. Makes 2 quarts of syrup. When ready to make tea, mix 1 cup syrup to 2 quarts of water. Add lemon to taste. You can also add orange juice. I use 3 cups of sugar because 4 1/2 cups is too sweet for me.

I want to try every recipe posted today. Georgysmom, your white gazpacho sounds good. The recipes I've read have white grapes added, which seems odd to me, but maybe it's good. I think I like yours best. Jude, I had the Parade magazine in front of me ready to post the wild rice recipe. Doesn't it sound good? Luckygardnr, I've never made polenta because I've heard it's just like grits (which I love). But I'm going to make your recipe when our granddaughter and her DH come next month. In fact, I think I'll make all three recipes. Thanks for the menu help, guys!! This is more of a cool weather dish, at least for us. CREAMY CROCKPOT SPAGHETTI (Picky Palate) 1 pound lean ground beef 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder or salt 3 jars 26 ounce pasta sauce 1 pound spaghetti noodles 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese 4 ounces cream cheese 1-2 cups chicken broth 1. Cook/brown beef into a medium skillet over medium heat until crumbled and browned Season with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Drain fat from pan if necessary. 2. Pour one jar of pasta sauce into bottom of crock pot on high heat. Break spaghetti noodles in half and place noodles over sauce. Pour cooked beef over noodles, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and top with cubes of cream cheese. Pour another jar of pasta over cream cheese, close lid and let cook on high for 3 hours. After 3 hours, give a good stir (will be thick) and add last jar of pasta sauce and 1-2 cups of chicken broth (more if you want a thinner sauce). Close lid and let cook another hour or until ready to serve. Makes 10-12 servings

This is a Whole Foods recipe I found when searching for a Mexican corn on the cob recipe. I had similar to this the 4th. Mexican corn on the cob 4 ears fresh corn on the cob 2 TBS extra virgin olive oil 2 tsp red chili powder 4 tsp lime juice salt, black pepper, and cumin powder to taste Directions: Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a steamer with a tight fitting lid. Do not salt water. Remove husks and corn silk from corn cobs. Place the corn in the steamer basket, cover, and steam for 5 minutes. While corn is steaming, mix together olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, salt and pepper. Remove corn from steamer, brush with oil mixture, and serve hot. Serves 4 Here's another, and I think I can edit both and come up with my own version Mexican corn on the cob 3 tablespoons mayonnaise (fat free is fine) 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice (optional) 2 tablespoons finely grated parmesan cheese 1/2 teaspoon chili powder 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin 1/8 teaspoon salt 4 ears corn, shucked Directions: 1Prepare grill.2Combine mayo and juice (if using) in a small bowl.3Combine cheese and seasonings in another small bowl.4Place corn on grill rack that has been sprayed with cooking spray.5Grill corn 12 minutes or until tender, turning frequently.6Remove from grill and brush with mayo mixture, and sprinkle with cheese mixture.7Serve immediately.
