    I loved these burgers!!! I found by combining the remaining ingredients while the lentils were still warm, letting them sit 15 more min, and rolling them into balls first, they stuck together fine and made great burgers! Definitely adding to my favorite new recipes!! - 4/14/12

    I grate the carrots lengthwise so that I have about 2" long fine carrot strings, then I make 12 smaller patties (instead of 8). The carrots reinforce things and the smaller patties will stay together for you. Go heavy on the spices, then season the formed patties as you would with meat. Recommended. - 11/3/10

    This makes HUGE patties...quite good but needs more herbs. I added 1 tsp. basil and used fresh garlic. Next time I will add some celery seeds and maybe some cumin. I used brown basmati rice which needed another cup and a half of water to finish cooking. Carrots make for a nice sweet finish. - 10/17/10

    Tasted good, but did NOT form burgers. It needs a binding agent, something a bit more liquid, such as an egg replacer of some kind, I think. Maybe just putting half through the food processor would do it though. Also, be aware that brown rice takes more than 45 min to cook, it just does. - 12/7/11
