Veggie Burger Patties W/ Mushrooms, Quinoa, & Garbanzo Beans
- 1 lb mushroom, of your choice
- 12 cup onion, diced
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup cooked quinoa
- 1 (16 ounce) candrained and rinsed garbanzo beans (Chick Peas)
- 1 14 cups breadcrumbs
- 1 beaten egg
- 3 green onions, finely chopped
- salt & pepper
- 1 tablespoon mccormick's pinch perfect garlic basil seasoning (or other seasoning)
- Clean mushrooms with a damp cloth.
- Mince finely or put into a food processor until they are finely chopped.
- Saute the onions and garlic on medium high heat for 3 minutes.
- Add mushrooms and cook until mushrooms are tender and darken in color.
- Remove from heat, drain off and reserve excess water.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Mash or use a food processor on the Garbanzo beans to make a paste.
- It is okay if some of the beans are intact, gives a nice texture.
- Combine the mushroom mixture, the cooked quinoa, the mashed garbanzo beans, the bread crumbs, the green onions, the McCormick's seasoning and the beaten egg and combine well with a rubber spatula.
- You may need to add more liquid, use the reserve from the mushrooms & onion mixture.
- Form into patties.
- Make sure they are not too thick or they will not cook right.
- There should be 6 medium large patties, no more than 1/2 inch thick.
- Refrigerate the patties for an hour, covered tightly with plastic wrap.
- Use a non-stick pan to grill on each side, about 6 minutes each side on Medium High heat.
- I had no problems with sticking, but if you must you a cooking spray first.
