Quinoa Tuna Cakes

Another big hit tonight Quinoa Tuna Cakes.  I had cooked up the last of my Quinoa a couple days ago and threw it in the fridge.  I had planned to make a berry snack out of it, but never got around to it.  I knew I needed to use it.  So how do you make Quinoa into a delicious dinner?  Add Tuna, make a patty and bake! This was AMAZINGLY good.  It's like a crab cake, but better.  And with Tuna.  I cannot tell you how excited I get when I try something new and it turns out delicious.  You all need to try this.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup cooked Quinoa
• 1 can Tuna
• 1/4 cup chopped onion (or to taste)
• 1 Garlic clove
• 1 Egg
• Cilantro (I found more was better than less, maybe a good handful)
• Salt and Pepper to taste

Topping:

• Greek Yogurt
• Lemon Juice
• Avocado

Directions:

• Preheat oven to 375
• Mix Ingredients together, if too runny add small amount of flour.
• Use a large spoon to scoop mixture and form into cake on baking sheet (greased or silpat)
• Bake 25-30 minutes
• Mix Lemon Juice with Yogurt and put a dollop onto cake, then a slice of Avocado
