4 cups cooked quinoa
2 cups spinach, washed, patted dry,
and roughly chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon lemon zest
Sea salt and pepper, to taste
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
4 eggs, beaten
Vegetable oil for frying

In a large bowl, mix the quinoa, spinach, garlic, and lemon zest. Taste and liberally season with salt and pepper. Add the panko and eggs; mix well to combine.
Form the quinoa mixture into 2-inch patties, about 1⁄2-inch thick. Heat a layer of olive oil in a large nonstick skillet. Drop patties into the oil and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Place on paper towels to drain before serving.
