Serves/Makes: 10 | Ready In: 1-2 hrs
Ingredients:
3/4 cup regular brown rice
2 cups water
1 1/2 cup navy beans, cooked drained
3/4 cup peanuts, roasted, chopped
3/4 cup salted roasted sunflower seeds, shelled, chopped
3/4 cup walnuts or pecans, chopped
2 stalks celery, finely chopped
1 large carrot, shredded
1 medium onion, finely chopped
6 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tablespoon cooking oil
3 egg whites, beaten
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed
1/2 teaspoon ground sage
1/2 teaspoon dried basil, crushed
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons cooking oil
10 whole grain hamburger buns
Directions:
In a medium saucepan, cook rice in boiling water, covered, 45 minutes or till soft and sticky. Measure 2 cups rice.
Meanwhile, in a food processor bowl, process navy beans till mashed. (Or place beans in a large bowl and mash with a potato masher.) Combine beans, peanuts, sunflower seeds and walnuts or pecans. Set aside.
In a large skillet, cook celery, carrot, onion and garlic in 1 tablespoon cooking oil till the vegetables are tender. Add to the nut mixture. Add beaten egg whites, soy sauce, tomato paste, oregano, sage, basil, pepper and cooked rice. Mix well.
Form into 3/4-inch-thick patties. In a large skillet, heat 1 to 2 tablespoons cooking oil over medium heat. Cook 4 to 5 patties at a time on both sides till browned and heated through, about 3 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining oil and patties. Serve in buns as you like, with desired toppers.
Cook's Note: You can substitute a 15-ounce can of navy beans, drained, for the cooked navy beans.
