Gardenburger Recipe

Stir wheat and 1/4 c. boiling water together in small bowl and set aside until wheat has doubled in size, approximately 1 hour.

In small saucepan, sauté mushrooms in small amount of water until tender, 5-7 minutes.

Remove to condiment bowl and repeat with onions. Remove onions to separate condiment bowl. Set both bowls aside.

Let oats soak in 1/2 c. of water for 10 minutes. Drain excess water from wheat and oats. Place grains, mushrooms, rice, cheeses and seasoning in food processor and pulse until finely chopped but not pureed, about 4 or 5 times.

In medium bowl, combine chopped mixture with onion and cornstarch until well mixed.

Preheat oven to 300F. Spray skillet with cooking oil; place it over medium-low heat.

Drop 1/2 c. mixture into pan at a time, shaping into burger bun size patties, about 1/2" thick. Brown patties on each side and remove from frying pan.

Arrange patties on lightly sprayed baking sheet. Bake 22-25 minutes in oven, turning patties halfway through cooking time.

After cooling, wrap patties and seal in resealable bag and freeze.
