    Hi Caroline! I’m making the quinoa patties as we speak. I just happened to have some cooked quinoa and was contemplating what to make with it, and there you are with the perfect recipe. I didn’t have any bread crumbs, so I used almond flour instead. Seemed to work fine. I also made the patties a bit larger, so left them in the oven a bit longer. Can’t wait to taste them!
    Thank you!

    Omg!!! These are so great. Of course they are. What are some additional “flavor bombs” that you turn to? In February, in the south, I look forward to asparagus, leeks and spinach with early strawberries

    • @CarolineLFranco
      @CarolineLFranco  3 месяца назад

      Yes, the strawberries in the south are so much better! Thank you so so much Sallie Ann, so happy you enjoyed this video and recipe ideas! I like to think of flavor bombs like a sauces, infused oil, or something like a gremolata or dukkah that you can top a dish with. Anyway to add extra flavor and texture and depth

      Hey Ellen!!! Just dropping a little note since you’re also in North Carolina! I saw that you had mentioned you were downsizing and wanted to let you know if you’re thinking thinking about selling, I’m an award-winning top, producing agent in the triangle and the triad. Don’t know where in NC you are but I service pretty much anywhere from Fuquay all the way to Winston. ❤

    Can do some recipes with no sodium mediterranean vegetarian

    • @CarolineLFranco
      @CarolineLFranco  4 месяца назад

      Hello Judy :) thank you so much for watching my channel and sharing this request with me! So the Mediterranean Diet is actually a moderately low-sodium diet apart for a few foods such as olives, cheese, deli meats, and broth. But because the Mediterranean diet is so focused on Whole Foods and making almost everything from scratch in your kitchen, avoiding processed foods, almost all my recipes are pretty low in sodium as long as you omit the salt and avoid the specific higher sodium processed foods. Does that make any sense??
