Quinoa Croquettes

I made/invented these this evening. They were so yum. We ate them over a simple green salad with oil/vinegar/salt and green beans.

1 c. cooked quinoa
1 c. defrosted hash browns (uncooked, basically shredded potatoes)
1 egg
1/4 c. minced red onion
1/4 c. minced fresh parsley
1/2 t. cumin
1/2 t. dried oregano
3/4 t. kosher salt

Saute onions for a few minutes in olive oil until soft. Set aside to cool a bit.

Mix all ingredients (including onions).

Heat shallow pan. Add a few glugs of olive oil, heat. Toss 1/4 c. balls/patties into the oil, flatten. Cook until brown. Flip, repeat.

Serve!
