Refried beans & quinoa burger patties

No story here, I'm trying to cut down on carbs (anyone who's tried that knows how difficult that is) Quinoa provides a texture as well as an added shot of proteins, making this a great vegan burger.. I simply wrapped it in Romaine lettuce leaves & scarfed it down. <br />The recipe has since morphed into a go to standard for my 3rd grader's lunches. Kids being kids, its 'cool' to eat food that mimics fast food. If he thinks of a healthy vegan burger as cool, who am I to question that? <br /> I simply melt a slice of cheese (his favorite is mozzarella) over the cooked patty and slap it between a burger bun or dinner roll. A bit of lettuce and voila..
