Veggie Burgers

from my WIC cookbook

I think I was surprised by how easy and tasty these were. Leesha even liked them.

In skillet on medium heat, cook until tender:
1 T. oil
1 large onion, chopped
Add, and cook until boiling:
1 1/4 c. broth/bullion
1/2 c. dry lentils which have been rinsed

Reduce heat to med-low, cover and cook 30-45 minutes until lentils are soft. Drain any excess liquid and let cool.

Beat in medium bowl: (I've used my food processor for this step)
2 eggs
Add and mix well, then shape into patties:
1/2 c. dry bread crumbs/crushed crackers
1/2 c. quick cooking oats
lentil mixture

cook patties in greased skillet on medium heat until brown on both sides.

Variation: add 1/2 t. salt and 1/2 t. sage
