VEGETARIAN ESSENTIALS: SUPER AWESOME BURGERS

Steps:

• 1. PREP/PREPARE
• 2. You will need a blender, or food processor fitted with an S-Blade to make this recipe.
• 3. The beans are an important element in the flavor of these burgers. I make my own (I will share the recipe in a bit); however, when it comes to canned beans, some of my absolute favorite ones are Bush's Baked Beans. Those folks know how to make 'em tasty.

• 4. Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
• 5. Cook the rice according to package directions, and then allow to cool.
• 6. Add the beans to a large bowl, and crush with a fork. Do not turn them into mush... leave some bits.
• 7. Place the sunflower seeds into a blender/food processor, and blend until fine, but do not blend to the point that it becomes a paste. Trust me, it does not take long for that to happen.
• 8. Add the remaining ingredients, but not the rice, and use one-second pulses until everything is nicely combined.
• 9. Add the blended ingredients, along with the rice into the large bowl with the beans, and mix with wet hands until combined, then shape into burger patties.
• 10. If you are making sliders, you will probably get about 20; if you are doing full-size patties, you will probably get about 8.
• 11. You can stick these into a 370f (188c) oven until they begin to brown, about 12 - 14 minutes, or you could fry them up in a pan with a bit of oil.
• 12. PLATE/PRESENT
• 13. Mix the dressing together, if using, and spread it over the burger before serving. Enjoy.
• 14. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
