    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
