These are fantastic. Next time I will make a big batch, cook them 1/2 way and freeze them in FoodSaver (upper-end version of the Seal-a-Meal) bags and have them for a quick dinner. Thank you for a great vegan "burger" recipe. These will be great for next summer on the grill!! - 11/9/12

These were amazing. The only issue I had was that they fell apart to much. - 5/17/14

Tasted delicious - the burgers fell apart a little. Next time I'm going to try chilling the mixture first and using a patty press. - 3/3/14

I may give this a try. When I had quinoa before I didn't like the taste or texture. Maybe made this way it will be disguised. - 2/22/18

HAHAHAHA!!!! i tried to make the patties but ended up with a great "HASH" substitute. At least it's still edible = } I'll have to play with this one some more. I chilled the quinoa this time. Next time after it chills, I'll make the patties and chill/freeze them a bit before flouring and cooking. - 9/10/17

The only suggestion I'd make is that olive oil has a low heat point and shouldn't be used for frying. Sesame oil or walnut oil are both excellent alternatives (and the sesame oil is on the anti-angiogenic list!) Otherwise, I can't wait to try this recipe. I saw the same TED talk! - 12/1/14
