Nothing speaks to good weather more than opening up the BBQ and grilling some burgers!

Burger Patties are something you might want to make in bulk. Refrigerate them in a glass container and use them for wraps and a protein topper for salads. Having these on hand makes for the quickest lunches.

Ingredients

1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Yellow Onion (diced)
4 cups Portobello Mushroom (diced)
3 Garlic Cloves (minced)
3/4 cup Walnuts (chopped and toasted)
2 cups Green Lentils (cooked, drained, rinsed and divided)
2 tsps Tabasco Sauce

1 tsp Paprika
1 1/2 tsps Chili Powder
2/3 cup Almond Flour
1/3 cup Parsley (chopped)
1/4 tsp Sea Salt
1/4 tsp Black Pepper

The Steps to Take

Step 1

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute onion and mushrooms for 8 to 10 minutes or until onions are translucent. Add the garlic and saute for another minute. Drain off all the excess liquid.

Step 2

In a food processor, combine the mushroom and onion mix, walnuts, half the lentils, tabasco sauce, paprika and chili powder. Pulse until smooth. Transfer into a large mixing bowl and add almond ﬂour, parsley, sea salt, black pepper and remaining lentils. Mix well. (Note: Add more almond ﬂour 1 tbsp at a time if your mixture is too wet.)

Step 3

Use a 1/3 measuring cup to measure out even amount of the mix and form them into patties with your hands or use a round cookie cutter or large mason jar lid to make perfect patties. Place them on a piece of parchment paper.

Step 4

Heat the grill over medium heat. Grill the patties for 10 to 15 minutes per side and then gently ﬂip. Brush each side with a bit of olive oil before and after ﬂipping.

Step 5

Remove from grill and top the burgers with your favourite burger ﬁxings and enjoy!
