Vegetable Quinoa Pancakes

This is a great pancakes for dinner recipe. It makes super healthy pancakes that are great served with a bit of shredded cheese and sour cream or plain yogurt. If you make them with an egg substitute and skip the cheese and sour cream they are vegan and candida friendly. You can use rice flour or quinoa flour and make them gluten free as well.
This recipe will feed two adults, double it for a family.

What you need:

1-1/12 cups cooked Quinoa
1/3 cup whole wheat flour
1egg or egg substitute (I use 1 tablespoon of ground flax boiled in 3 tablespoons of water)
1tsp of baking powder
1 shredded carrot
1 shredded zucchini ( I have also used broccoli and bell peppers in this)
If it seems a bit dry, add a tablespoon or so of water or milk or vegetable juice.


*you can also add shredded cheese right in the mix. I can't eat dairy so I put about 1/4 cup if Daiya Vegan shredded cheese in.


in a large bowl or food processor mix all ingredients together. These don't pour like regular pancakes so you have to spoon them into a large frying pan with a bit of oil or butter, brown on both sides and serve with shredded cheese, sour cream or plain yogurt. You can also top with salsa, avocado, hummus, or grilled veggies.
