  1. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add in cooking oil and then patties to heated oil. Sear for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until a nice golden crust forms. Lower heat to medium, and cover pan with a lid. Cook for another 5 to 6 minutes.
  2. While patties are cooking, heat a saute pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tsp. (30 ml) of oil and then sugar snap peas to heated oil with some salt. Saute for 3 to 5 minutes, until softened but crunchy.
  3. Enjoy your patties with quinoa and crunchy snap peas! (You can top them with Greek yogurt too!)
