These fritters are a fun and tasty way to sneak more vegetables into your diet. The combination of quinoa, carrots, spinach, and green onions provides a nutritional powerhouse!
Quinoa is a complete protein and makes these fritters extra satisfying. It also holds the fritters together nicely.
Baking the fritters makes them healthier than frying. They come out crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside without the added oil.
Mix up the veggie blend by adding corn, zucchini, broccoli, or any other vegetables you have on hand. Get creative!
The dipping sauce possibilities are also endless - try plain Greek yogurt, hummus, or tzatziki or salsa.
Make a big batch on the weekend and keep them in the fridge to reheat throughout the week for quick, healthy meals. They're great on-the-go snacks too. Kids love these veggie fritters because they can help mix the ingredients and form the patties. A fun, hands-on cooking project!
For a vegan version, simply swap the egg for a flax or chia "egg" and use non-dairy Greek yogurt for serving.
