I thought I'd share a recipe for mushroom lentil burgers that I made this past weekend and really enjoyed.

  • 1 onion (finely chopped)

  • 1 c mushrooms (finely chopped)

  • 1/2 t dried thyme

  • 1 can lentils (drained & rinsed - also works with cooked dried lentils)

  • 1/2 c quick-cooking oats

  • 3 T Parmesan cheese (but any cheese will work)

  • 2 T chopped pine nuts (pecan, walnut, even peanuts will also work)

Saute onion in a little oil until softened. Add mushrooms & thyme & cook until just starting to brown (about 5 mins). Mush all together in a bowl and cool slightly. 
 

Mash the lentils in a bowl, stir in the mushroom/onion mixture & add oats, cheese, nuts & a little salt/pepper. 

Shape into patties (about 3/4" thick). This recipe makes 4, but you can easily double (or triple) it. 

Lastly, in the skillet heat each side for about 3-4 mins until golden brown. Serve with lots of toppings and enjoy!
