Preparation

Step 1

Heat a non-stick frying pan on med. low
Sweat onions, bell peppers, zucchini, squash, add minced garlic at the very end. Take off the heat and cool
Blend all ingredients in a bowl or food processor
If you have time, chill the mixture for an hour or so before forming into patties, for a firmer patty.
Divide burger mix into 8 equal portions and form into 3 inch patties
Fry in a little oil on medium heat, 5 - 10 minutes each side, until browned and firm
To freeze uncooked, place the patties between sheets of wax paper on a baking sheet and freeze. Store in a freezer bag or plastic container and cook as needed (thaw in fridge or microwave)
