Preheat the oven to 400F and prepare a baking tray with parchment paper.
Peel and cut the sweet potato into large cubes, and spread onto the prepared baking sheet.
Drizzle half of the olive oil and half of the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper overtop of the sweet potato cubes.
Bake the sweet potato for 20 – 25 minutes until golden and tender enough to mash.
Allow the roasted sweet potato to slightly cool and transfer to a large bowl.
At the same time, prepare the quinoa and cook according to package cooking instructions. Set aside.
Mash the sweet potato, add the beaten eggs, and mix to combine.
Add all of the remaining ingredients. Mix until perfectly combined.
Using a medium-sized ice scream scoop or ¼ cup, form mixture into 15 balls and lay onto a sheet pan with parchment paper OR grease with coconut oil.
Bake in the oven for 20 - 25 minutes at 400F until golden brown.
Enjoy with tzatziki, whipped feta, or marinara sauce!
