Delicious + nutritious mushroom + rice burgers
Ingredients
3 Tbs olive oil or 1/3 cup vegetable broth
1 cup chopped shallots and onions or one or the other
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups mixed mushrooms, chopped (my preference is shiitake)
2 tsps smoked paprika
2 tsps onion granules
1 cup hemp seeds
1 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 ground flax seeds
4 cups cooked brown rice (basmati is my preference)
1 cup red pepper, chopped
2 cups chopped spinach
Vegan Worcestershire sauce
Mushroom Marinade
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400º
Mix the marinade ingredients, add the mushrooms and set aside while preparing the rest of the ingredients
Heat oil or vegetable broth, add onions and sauté for about 5 min or until onions are translucent
Add garlic and cook for another minute
Add mushrooms and cook for 5 min then add red pepper and cook another 5 min
Place walnuts in a food processor and pulse until they are ground
Add the cooked mushroom mixture, hemp, flax seeds, smoked paprika, onion granules, half the rice and and spinach and pulse a few times
Put mixture into a big bowl and mix well
Use the burger press (I love the Cuisinart*one) and form 10 very large patties
Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and brush each one with Worcestershire sauce
Bake for 15 min, flip, baste the other side and bake them for another 15-20 min
