Squash Latke with Beef Patty & Egg
Ingredients
- ½ Butternut Squash (medium, peeled, cut in half, de-seeded & grated)
- 3 Eggs (divided)
- Sea Salt & Black Pepper (to taste)
- 1 tbsp Avocado Oil (divided)
- 225g Extra Lean Ground Beef
- 1/2 cup Baby Spinach
- ½ Tomato (sliced)
Directions
- Combine the grated squash and one-third of the egg in a large bowl. Mix well to combine, then add salt and pepper to taste.
- Warm a large pan over medium heat and add half of the oil. Form the latkes with approximately one cup of the squash mixture and add them to the pan, pressing down until they are approximately 3/4-inch thick. Cook for five minutes on each side, or until browned, then remove from the pan and set aside.
- In the same pan, add the remaining oil. Form the ground beef into even-sized patties, approximately 3/4-inch thick. Add them to one half of the pan and cook for seven minutes on each side.
- Add the remaining eggs into the other half of the pan and cook until the whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your liking.
- Place the squash latke on a plate and top it with the spinach, fried egg, sliced tomato, and beef patty. Enjoy!

Ingredients 450g salmon fillet ½ teaspoon salt, divided ¼ teaspoon ground pepper 30g string beans (green, yellow, or a mix), trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces 1 ¾ cups water ¾ cup quinoa (red, white, or tricolored), rinsed 3 tablespoons lemon juice 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 clove garlic, minced 2 teaspoons chopped fresh oregano, plus more for garnish, or 1/2 tsp. dried 1 medium tomato, seeded and chopped ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese ¼ cup pitted Kalamata olives, halved or sliced Instructions Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with foil. Place salmon filet on the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle with 1/8 tsp. salt and pepper. Bake until the salmon is no longer opaque in the center and flakes easily with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes, then flake the salmon into bite-size pieces (discard the skin). Meanwhile, bring 1 inch of water to a boil in a medium saucepan fitted with a steamer basket. Add 8 ounces beans; cover and cook until tender-crisp, about 5 minutes. Rinse the beans under cold water, drain well, and set aside. Combine 1 ¾ water, ¾ quinoa, and 1/8 tsp. salt in the saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until the quinoa is tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Whisk 3 tablespoons lemon juice, 2 tablespoons oil, 1 clove minced garlic, 2 teaspoons chopped oregano, and the remaining 1/4 tsp. salt in a small bowl. To serve, divide the quinoa among 4 dinner bowls. Arrange the salmon, beans, tomato, feta, and olives over the quinoa. Drizzle with the dressing and garnish with more fresh oregano, if desired.
