I used ground turkey instead because it's much healthier and cheaper too!
You can keep the mixture in the fridge and eat as a snack constantly. This is a great recipe for me because I'm a college student, so when I have to run home for lunch, I can just have a pattie or two with curry and rice to add a little protein to my meal really easily! This makes about 30 patties, so I just make this every sunday, and then it's usually over after a week or two since I eat about 2 patties a day. And it's only about 80 calories a pattie! yum!
This is also great as a snack at parties, if you have a big group over,
Hope you guys enjoy! This is adapted from http://ethmar.com/ethan/food_drink/recipes
