Mushroom Veggie Burger....

This is a great alternative to the regular Hamburger!  Great to take to a picnic, or just a substitute for the calories and fat from a Beef Burger.

Pre-heat oven to 375

Ingredients:

3 cups of walnuts
4-6 Slices of whole grain bread (usually found in the freezer section) (thaw before using)
2 Large Portabello Mushrooms
4-5 Regular Mushrooms
Half of chopped onion
Seasonings:  (these can vary, depending on your taste and how spicy you like it.  I like to include Horse Radish in many dishes, as it gives a zip and enhanced flavor)

One - two Tablespoons each.

Pepper
Basil
Thyme
Garlic Powder
Parsley
Whole Grain Mustard
White Horse Radish
Dashes of:  Worcester Sauce, Low Sodium Soy or Tamari Sauce, Hot Sauce, Balsamic Vinegar

Cheese Cloth

In a Food Processor, mix the walnuts so they become like a grated cheese consistency.  Remove.  Blend the bread in a bread crumb consistency.  Remove and mix with the walnuts.  Set aside.

In a Food Processor, mix the remaining ingredients; it will become like a thick soup consistency.

Mix, well, the wet & dry ingredients together.  Line a baking pan with Parchment Paper.  Begin to make the burgers by forming a ball, then wrapping the cheese cloth around it.  Squeeze gently to remove some of the moisture.  Form into a burgers set on the Parchment Paper.  This recipe should yield about 6 Burgers, depending on the size that you like.

Bake  for 20 minutes, flip and bake another 15-20 minutes.  Let cool.  Serve!
