      Don't call it mac and cheese and it sounds pretty good. It's a gratin, maybe. Or a casserole.

      This is very similar to a quinoa burger recipe I just tried!

      2 cups cooked quinoa
      3 eggs
      3 tbsp Flour
      1 carrot finely grated (or sub zucchini)
      1 small onion finely diced
      1 cup grated cheese
      1/2 cup cottage cheese or sour cream (I didn't have any of either so I left it out...made no difference)
      Seasonings...I used 1 tsp chili powder, dash of curry and a tsp of garlic salt...very versatile for any flavor you're looking for

      Mix it all together (after letting quinoa cool a bit)..if it's too wet, add a little more flour. Use a 1/4 cup to drop into a hot oiled pan (i spritzed with olive oil between each batch) and flatten to about half an inch thickness. Fry until golden brown, then flip.

      You can serve on a bun like a real burger, or a lettuce bed. I just ate mine on their own. Suggested toppings were mayo/ketchup (fry sauce), tatziki...could be anything depending on your flavorings.

      When I made it I ended up with 11 patties at 120 calories each (not including the olive oil for frying). Super yummy!

      sounds even better than the mac n cheese
