Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 2 cups fresh spinach (roughly chopped) Use fresh spinach for best flavor.
  • 1 cup crumbled feta cheese For a flavorful punch.
  • 1/2 cup cooked quinoa Can substitute with couscous or rice.
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese To enhance the flavor.
  • 2 large eggs Act as a binding agent.
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder For additional flavor.
  • Salt and pepper to taste Adjust according to preference.
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs Use seasoned breadcrumbs for extra flavor.
  • Olive oil For drizzling before baking.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the chopped spinach, feta cheese, cooked quinoa, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and eggs. Season with salt and pepper, and mix until well-combined.
  3. Grab a baking sheet and line it with parchment paper. Use a spoon to scoop out portions of the mixture and form them into little patties or rounds.
  4. Dip each patty into the breadcrumbs to coat them evenly.
  5. Place the coated patties on the baking sheet and drizzle olive oil on top. Bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
Serving
  1. Once baked, let them cool slightly and serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy them as they are.

Notes

Feel free to experiment with ingredients like sun-dried tomatoes or olives. Store leftovers in an airtight container; they can last for up to three days. Reheat in the oven for optimal texture.
