Veggie Burgers

Here is a recipe that I use for a meatless dinner. Of course, no one in my household will eat them other than me so when I make them I split them with my Dad who is vegetarian and will eat them.

I am still playing with seasonings in this recipe. Each time I make them I add a little something different till I come up with just the right one. So keep that in mind and don't be afraid to add your own combinations to this.

Veggie Burgers

1/4 cup minced onion

1/4 cup green or red bell pepper, diced small

1 small carrot, shredded

1 can of cannellini beans (white kidney beans), drained

1 egg, beaten

1/3 cup italian seasoned bread crumbs

1 tsp. Watkins Ground Beef Seasoning

pinch of dried cilantro

pinch of celery salt

black pepper

salt

olive oil

Heat olive oil in skillet.

Add onion, pepper & carrot and cook till veggies are tender.

Set aside & let cool.

In a bowl, mash the drained beans.

Add egg, bread crumbs, veggies and all seasonings.

Mix good and shape into 4 patties.

I usually make mine in the morning and then refrigerate them till dinnertime.

When ready, just heat a little olive oil in a skillet and then add the patties.

I cook these on a medium heat and brown them on both sides.

Place on a hamburger bun with all your favorite toppings.

(lettuce, tomato, mustard, ketchup, pickles...etc.)
