Sweet Potato Quinoa Cakes

sweet-potato-patties-wThese are a wonderful alternative to the typical veggie burger or hash brown potatoes.

Ingredients
• 2 medium sweet potatoes, cooked and mashed
• 1 cup quinoa, rinsed and cooked according to package directions (I use a rice cooker)
• 1 cup wild rice blend, cooked according to package directions
• ½ cup green onions, sliced
• ½ cup dried cranberries, chopped
• 1 Tbsp dried sage
• ½ Tbsp sea salt
• ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. Combine mashed sweet potatoes, cooked quinoa, cooked rice, green onions, cranberries, sage, salt and pepper.  Add water if needed.
3. Form and flatten portions of the “dough” into patties.
4. 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.
5. Serve warm, at room temperature, or straight from the fridge.

Serving = 1 cake. Add some protein and veggies for a balanced meal.  Makes approximately: 4 medium sized cakes.  You can also make mini-cakes for easy finger food.
