Ingredients

    1 cup red lentils
    1 1/2 cups hot water
    2 tablespoons vegetarian chick'n flavor broth powder (I buy in the bulk bin at WF)
    2 c. cooked brown rice
    1/4 cup fresh, chopped parsley (or 1 T dried)
    1/2 large onion, minced
    2 teaspoons cumin
    1 teaspoon crushed red pepper

Directions

Simmer the lentils with the bouillon and water for about 15 minutes. When the lentils are cooked, all the water should be absorbed. If the lentils are watery, let them sit to absorb the rest of the moisture. When the lentils are cooked and relatively cooled add the brown rice, parsley, garlic, onion, and spices. Shape the lentil mixture into small patties.

Cook in a double sided electric grill (like a George Forman), or spray a large nonstick skillet with oil from a pump-sprayer. Cook the patties at medium heat until crusty on both sides. Turn and handle carefully, they are a bit fragile.
