BEET LENTIL BURGERS
SERVES: 6
TOTAL TIME: 1 HOUR, 15 MINUTES
INGREDIENTS
4 medium-sized beets, peeled and cubed
1 cup lentils, cooked and rinsed
1/2 cup walnuts, roughly chopped
1/2 cup parsley, chopped
1/4 ground flax seed
1/2 tsp. sea salt
2 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
DIRECTIONS
Add the beets to a steaming basket over boiling water and cover. Steam for approximately 25 minutes, or until tender. Let cool.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a food processor, add the lentils, walnuts, parsley, ground flax seeds, salt, garlic and cooked beets. Pulse until coarse crumbs form. Do not over mix.
Scoop 1/2 cup of the mixture and form into patties (about 4–5 inches in diameter). Place on the prepared baking sheet, and bake for 30 minutes, carefully flipping halfway through.
Serve with roll of choice or lettuce wrap. Top with sliced avocado or greek yogurt.
