Ingredients
I begin with most ingredients roasted already, except for the zucchini and cereal. I just set up cookie sheets with onions, carrots, garlic and whatever else I want or have. You could add celery for a more salty taste. I also have beans cooked and saved in the refrigerator or freezer. You can use canned beans, but rinse and drain first.1 c. cooked lentils (or beans of your choice)1 c. cooked onions1 c. roasted carrots1 c. shredded zucchini1 T. chopped garlic or 1 T. roasted garlic2 egg whites1 c. uncooked multigrain hot cereal or rolled oats.1 T Kitchen Bouquet1 T Braggs Liquid AminosHerbs and spices to taste (I used rosemary, thyme, and pepper the last time. Next week, I need to use the dill which wants to go to seed.)This is really a "what-have-you" recipe. You could substitute any beans, or bean sprouts, or veggies, or other grain like rice or quinoa (cooked first).
Directions
Place all ingredients in food processor and process until blended. Form into patties using 1/2 cup for each burger.

I cook mine in a sprayed Foreman grill, 2 at a time for 10 minutes each. If I am cooking all 6 for company, I keep the cooked burgers warm in the oven.

Leftovers freeze and reheat in the oven well.
