Walnut Burgers!

Since I love the flavor of walnuts and the amazing health benefits (omega-3s), I am extremely excited about these “burgers”. It’s also a great way to create a Meatless Monday or any meatless day.

1 cup chopped organic walnuts (or BHT free)

3/4 cup of cooked garbanzo beans or lentils

1/3 cup of ground raw oatmeal or gluten-free bread crumbs

1 tsp smoked paprika

1 TBS Bragg’s Liquid Aminos (healthy nonGMO alternative to soy sauce)

1/4 tsp red pepper flakes

1 TBS of apple cider vinegar

1-2 cloves of garlic

1 organic egg

Place all the ingredients, except the egg, in a Vitamix or food processor and blend.

Whisk egg and add to other ingredients. Pulse or blend about 10 seconds, until egg is fully incorporated. Divide ingredients into 4 equal parts.  Shape into 4 burger patties.

Bake the patties at 350 degrees for 30 minutes total. 15 minutes on one side, then flip patties over for the additional 15 minutes. Since bread lacks nutritional value and creates digestibility challenges, consider wrapping your burgers in organic romaine lettuce.

    Sounds like a highly nutritious recipe!

    I have used the Liquid Aminos for years. A vegan friend introduced me to Nama Shoyu, an organic soy sauce. I wonder if there is a significant difference between the two products? The Liquid Aminos are in a convenient spray form for salads and other dishes. But, I use Nama Shoyou when I’m not spritzing something.
