Sweet Potato Quinoa CakesBy Brittany Mullins, Holistic Health Coach and Blogger (www.eatingbirdfood.com)I like these quinoa cakes served hot, at room temperature, or even leftover and cold straight out of the fridge. Make them into burger size patties or make smaller cakes and serve them as appetizers! This recipe makes a lot (2.5 lbs of quinoa cake “dough”) and the baked patties freeze well!Ingredients1 lb. sweet potatoes (2 medium sized), peeled and cut into 1 inch chunks1 cup uncooked quinoa, rinsed and cooked according to package directions1 cup uncooked lundburg wild rice blend, cooked according to package directions½ cup green onions, sliced½ cup dried cranberries, chopped1 tablespoon dried sage½ tablespoon sea salt½ teaspoon black pepperInstructionsPreheat oven to 350°. Steam sweet potato chunks for 20-25 minutes. Then pu-ree sweet potatoes in stand mixer. You could also use a food processor or blend-er. Combine mashed sweet potatoes, cooked quinoa, cooked rice, green onions, cranberries, sage, salt and pepper. Form and flatten portions of the “dough” into patties. Lay the patties onto parchment paper that has been sprayed with cooking spray (or stoneware) and bake for 15-20 minutes until they’re lightly brown and crisp on the outside. Serve warm, at room temperature, or straight from the fridge.

Add wet mix to dry and fold in until just incorporated. (Don’t over mix!) Bake at 350 degrees for 25 - 30 minutes or until a knife can be inserted and pulled out clean.

RECIPESCarrot, Parsnip and Quinoa SoupBy Brittany Mullins, Holistic Health Coach and Blogger (www.eatingbirdfood.com)Ingredients1 Tablespoon coconut oil1 onion, chopped1 shallot, chopped finely1 teaspoon minced garlic1 lb. carrots, peeled and chopped½ lb. parsnips, peeled and chopped5 cups of vegetable broth or water1/3 cup uncooked quinoa, rinsed and drained1 teaspoon fresh thyme3 fresh sage leaves, finely chopped1 teaspoon cumin¼ teaspoon turmericsprinkle of cayenne pepperground black pepper, to taste1 Tablespoon miso paste, dissolved in 1 Tablespoon warm watersea salt, to tastescallions, as garnish2 Tablespoons gruyere cheese (optional)InstructionsIn a large stock pot, heat coconut oil on medium heat. Place onion, shallot and garlic into the pot and sauté for about five to seven minutes or until onions are translucent. Add herbs and spices (thyme, sage, cumin, turmeric, cayenne pepper and ground pepper) to the pot and stir. Add chopped carrots, parsnip and quinoa to the pot. Pour in vegetable broth or water. Bring mixture to a boil. Reduce to simmer and cook for about 20-40 minutes until veggies are tender. Remove from heat and let stand 3-5 minutes until cooled slightly. Using an immersion blender, blend the contents of the pot until a smooth, even consistency is reached. If you don’t have an immersion blender, you can blend the soup in your blender in small batches. Dissolve miso in warm water and stir into the soup. Miso gives the soup a wonderful flavor but if you don’t have miso, simply season the soup with a little sea salt. Serve immediately garnished with scallions and shredded gruyere cheese. Enjoy!
