Charlie LOVES these. And They're just brilliant because you can pack soooo much into them and add so many flavours - and different ingredients every time. They're probably pretty time consuming so if you have a little monkey make sure they're out having some daddy bonding time or something! They're easy to make. If I can do it then you can! They're so, so nutritious. I'm not even going to list all the nutritional info - lets just say they have everything including being packed with protein from the quinoa! You can pick the veggies you love but here's what I used: (Excuse the alcohol - it's left over from Christmas - people always buy us it and we never drink it!) Sweet potatos x 2 Quinoa grain (Which you soak overnight first) Sherlots x 3 Red pepper x 2 Cherry tomatos (a fair few!) 3 x carrots 1x suede cubed. Flaxseed Smoked paprika Garlic powder Mixed herbs Cashew nuts Lemon juice I was also going to use butterbeans but didn't feel like I needed to in the end. |
- Boil/steam the sweet potatos, carrot & suede
until they're mashable. - Boil the quinoa (keen-wah!) for 30 mins in boiling water with herbs & smoked paprika.
- Fry the red pepper, sherlots, tomatos, sprinkling in smoked paprika, onion powder, mixed herbs & lemon juice.
- Crush the cashew nuts & sprinkle them into the frying pan.
- Mix together the mashed sweet potato, carrot & suede and the boiled quinoa.
- Mix the fried veg with the mash & quinoa.
- Squish it all together (nice and messy!)
- Add flax seed liberally - it's a super food and it'll help it form a less gooey mixture.
- Form into burger shapes (Yorkshire pudding trays really help!)
- Cook - gas mark 6 for 30 mins, keep checking, attempt to turn over!
I made a cheese & chive sauce using alrpo soya milk, sunflower spread, whole meal flower, cheese & fresh chives & lemon juice.
Worked SO well with the burgers!
