Sweet Potato Quinoa Burgers

Ingredients:

2 large sweet potatoes, baked and peeled
1/2 cup quinoa, cooked
2 Tbsp coconut oil
2 Tbsp maple syrup or Nature’s Hollow Sugar Free Maple
1/2 an onion, diced
nama shoyu
salt and pepper to taste
avocado slices, for topping
sprouted grain bread (optional)

Preheat oven to 400 and line a baking pan with parchment paper. Heat a pat of coconut oil in a small pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and nama shoyu and saute until soft. Combine sweet potatoes, quinoa, coconut oil, maple syrup and onion mixture in a bowl and use a potato masher to mash until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mold into 4-6 patties, place on parchment paper and bake for 40 minutes- flipping halfway through. Top with avocado slices and serve with sprouted bread, if desired.
