Everything Bagel Quinoa Cakes

I think it’s safe to say that an everything bagel would be included in my last meal. Unwilling to eat the equivalent of five slices of bread (or whatever people say a bagel amounts to) all that often, I’ve taken to flavoring other, healthier things with everything seasoning.

I’ve done the infamous Everything English Muffin. I’ve used everything-flavored crackers to crust salmon. I’ve sprinkled everything seasoning mix on cottage cheese, salads and eggs.

These cute little quinoa cakes are sprinkled with everything bagel seasoning and then cooked until they are nice and golden brown on the outside. Topped with smoked salmon and crème fraîche, this dish is perfect for breakfast, brunch, lunch or even a light dinner!
