Directions

  1. Bring vegetable broth, water, and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender and broth has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Spread quinoa onto a large platter to cool.

  2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion, zucchini, and carrot in hot oil until the onion is translucent, 3 to 5 minutes, transfer to a plate to cool.

  3. Mix cooled vegetables with 3 cups of the cooled quinoa in a large bowl, season with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Pour eggs and ground oats into the bowl, stir until the mixture comes together. Divide mixture into 14 portions and shape into patties.

  4. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry patties in hot oil until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Use more oil between batches as needed.
