Nutburger - Healthy from Essential Edibles

By TFerg

I used to have lunch in a great restaurant in the basement of a church in Indianapolis. The chef gave me this recipe. Thanks Becky!

Ingredients

• 2 cups cooked brown rice
• 1 cup cashews
• 1/2 cup almonds
• 1 cup peanuts
• 1 tablespoon tahini
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 3/4 cup cold water
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 1 tablespoon arrow root
• 2 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce

Preparation

Step 1

Set oven at 350 degrees and lightly toast all nuts for eight minutes, stirring every 3 minutes to avoid over-browning.
Ground the nuts until fine.
Mix ground nuts with chopped onion and tahini.
In a small saucepan, mix water, arrow root, chili powder and soy sauce until thickened.
Combine all ingredients and form into patties.
Broil and serve on a whole wheat bun.
