Greek-style quinoa burgers

Description

In a small saucepan, bring 3/4 cup of water to a boil, add quinoa, cover, and reduce heat to low. Cook until the liquid is absorbed, 12 to 14 minutes. Set aside. In a food processor, pulse the carrot. Add cooked quinoa, half of the green onions, beans, breadcrumbs, egg, cumin, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Mix until combined. Divide the mixture into 4 portions and shape into patties. If the mixture is too soft, chill for 10 minutes. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Cook patties until browned, 8 to 10 minutes per side. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix yogurt, lemon juice, and the remaining green onions; season with salt and pepper. Serve the burgers in pita bread with cucumber and the yogurt sauce.
