Here’s one of the newer recipes that Chef Manolo has been preparing. Quinoa is a tasty seed that functions much like a grain. It has all the essential amino acids making it a complete protein, and is gluten-free and cholesterol-free.

 

    Ingredients:

  • 2 cups cooked quinoa
  • 1 red onion, chopped
  • 3 fresh tomatoes, diced
  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro, minced
  • 1/2 bunch fresh parsley, minced
  • 1/4 cup fresh chives, minced
  • 1 egg
  • salt
  • pepper

 

    Prep:

  1. Mix everything together in a bowl and, with the help of an ice cream scoop, roll into little balls.
  2. Fry these balls in a pan for a couple of minutes until they are lightly-browned on the outside, but still soft on the inside.
  3. Finish them by baking in the oven for 10 minutes at 350 degrees.

 

Serve with salad and any sauce of your choosing. Enjoy!
