Ingredients
2 cups instant brown rice1 3/4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth1/2 onion, finely chopped1 carrot, finely chopped2 cloves garlic1 1/4 cups walnuts1 egg white1 tbsp salt-free seasoning blend1/2 cup sesame seedsPaprika10 reduced-calorie hamburger buns10 tomato slices10 lettuce leavesIt says to use instant brown rice, so the calories could be different compared to what is here.I didn't use the exact brand of low-sodium vegetable broth so the calories in that could differ as well.Also, the book does not say what kind of "reduced-calorie" hamburger buns to use, so I went with the wonder bread reduced calorie, but I am sure there are others if you prefer them instead.
1. Combine the rice, broth, onion, carrot and garlic in a large saucepan. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat so the mixture simmers. Cook for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside, covered, for 5 minutes. Spread on a baking sheet to cool.
2. Process the walnuts in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade until finely ground. Add the rice mixture, egg white, and seasoning. Pulse until the mixture sticks together. With wet hands, roll into 10 balls and then flatten into patties. Place the sesame seeds on a shallow plate and press the patties into them. Sprinkle with the paprika.
3. Coat a nonstick griddle or large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Cook the patties for about 3 minutes or until golden. Turn carefully and cook for about 4 minutes longer or until heated through. Place each patty on a bun with a tomato slice and lettuce leaf.
Suppose to make 10 servings.
