1. Vegan steaks made with quinoa

Vegan quinoa steaks are low in calories and contain nutrients that are beneficial for health. Quinoa is a food rich in proteins of plant origin, vitamins B, C and E and essential minerals, more specifically iron and calcium.

This recipe is easy to prepare and is a good option for consuming more plant foods. We are thinking in particular of children in saying this.

Ingredients

• 200 g of quinoa
• 100 g carrot
• 70 g oatmeal
• 1 onion
• 1 leek
• 30 ml of vegetable milk
• 1 clove of garlic
• Breadcrumbs
• extra virgin olive oil
• Parsley, thyme and oregano
• Salt and pepper

Preparation

• First, wash and rinse the quinoa, then bring it to a boil in a saucepan for about twenty minutes.
• Pass the quinoa through a sieve and set aside for later.
• Peel the onion, garlic clove and leek, then cut these vegetables into julienne.
• Put the vegetables that you have just cut into julienne in a blender and mix until you obtain a perfectly homogeneous mixture. If you wish, before you put the vegetables in a blender, you can cook them, but this is not necessary. In addition, it will take you longer.
• Add the vegetable milk, cooked quinoa, oats, salt and any spices of your choice. Stir everything well.
• Now is the time to peel, wash and grate the carrots. Add them to the mixture and stir everything again.
• Stir in the amount of breadcrumbs you think is appropriate. The idea is to obtain a consistent texture. Store the mixture in the refrigerator for a few hours so that the steaks can take shape when cooking.
• When it comes to baking, you can opt for baking or pan. If you opt for the second option, fry your vegan steaks on a sufficiently hot pan with a drizzle of olive oil. Then remove the excess oil with absorbent paper. If you opt for baking, place the steaks on a baking sheet and cook for ten minutes on each side at 180ºC (top and bottom heat).
• Your vegan steaks are ready. All you have to do is assemble your burgers and you’re ready to go. Enjoy your meal !

• 1 red pepper
• Wheat flour
• Breadcrumbs
• extra virgin olive oil
• Salt and pepper

Preparation

• First of all, first peel and cut the onions, carrots and garlic cloves. Then put them on a pan on which you will have previously poured a drizzle of olive oil. Brown everything over low heat for about fifteen minutes.
• Add the peeled and chopped pepper as well as the cooked brown rice. Mix everything well to obtain a homogeneous mixture and taste.
• Now is the time to train vegan steaks. Once done, dip them in corn flour or breadcrumbs, as desired.

• Once cooked, place your steaks on a tray covered with paper towels to remove excess fat.
• Your steaks are ready! All you have to do is assemble your burgers and enjoy your dish. Enjoy your meal !

As far as bread is concerned, we advise you to opt for multi-grain bread or wholemeal bread.

If you don’t want to eat bread, an arugula-based salad with tomatoes, mustard sauce, or a good dressing is a good option. A vegetable cream (zucchini, squash, spinach) is another. And for dessert, what better than good fruit! This will ensure that you meet your nutritional needs.

When assembling your burgers, you can incorporate the following ingredients: tomatoes, vegan mayonnaise sauce, pesto sauce, mustard, vegan cheese, mushrooms or any other food of your choice.
