Mediterranean Quinoa Bowl

1. 1

   Form ground meat into 12 small patties, approximately 1/2 inch thick. Sprinkle with cumin, coriander, fennel, and salt and pepper (to taste).

2. 2

   In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Place patties in the pan and cook to desired doneness, about 4 minutes each side for medium (cook fully if using poultry).

   In a large mixing bowl, toss quinoa, scallions, tomatoes, and cucumber with remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

4. 4

   Divide salad greens into bowls. To each bowl, add 1/4 of the quinoa mixture, 3 burgers, and 1 lemon wedge. If desired, serve with a dollop of hummus, crumbled feta cheese, and a warm pita.
