Ingredients:

Serving

1 zucchini , peeled sliced thickly lengthwise
1 squash , peeled if necessary, sliced, i did not use
1 red bell pepper , remove seeds & slice lengthwise into 6 strips, can substitute bottled roasted peppers
1 red onion, peeled and sliced
1 large portobello mushroom cap , substitute several small
1 tbsp olive oil for brushing vegetables, more for cooking the burgers
1 cup quinoa, raw
4 large eggs, slightly beaten
1 bunch parsley, stems removed, chopped, approx. 1 cup loosely packed
5 -10 garlic cloves, minced, more
1 cup breadcrumbs, plain
1 cup oats , several quick pulses in a food processor
1 tbsp lemon juice
salt, to taste, i used 1 1/2 tsp
pepper, to taste, i used generous dusting

Directions:

Peel and slice vegetables. Brush lightly with olive oil for grilling. Grill until tender and caramelized. Cool down and rough to medium chop.
Quinoa-Toasted is suggested before boiling your quinoa.
In the mean time, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Cook quinoa for 7 minutes. Drain all excess water and cool. NOTE: you are not to fully cook the quinoa. 7 minutes is the suggested time and what I used. It give the burgers a great texture.
Combine all ingredients. If mix is too wet, add more oats.
Form patties. I used a patty press. Cook in a lightly oiled nonstick pan.
Serve with your favorite condiments on a toasted bun.
