Quinoa and Aduki Bean Burgers with Kale

Aduki beans are super-food material, being high in fibre, vitamins, minerals and protein. Quinoa also packs a protein punch, containing all nine essential amino acids, plus it is high in plant anti-oxidants called flavonoids. These healthy burgers will keep your blood sugar balanced for longer and stop you reaching for something sweet.
Kale is king of the crop – part of the brassica family, it contains plant chemicals that help you to detoxify estrogen, thus helping to keep a healthy hormonal balance. #plantprotein  #antioxidantsupport
