Garden Burgers

Directions In the bottom of a pan place a finely chopped onion with 1 teaspoon of oil. Stir in 1 tablespoon of curry power – mild

Let the mixture simmer for 3 to 4 minutes over heat.

Next put the mixture into a food processor. Add:
4 tablespoons of raisins
2 tablespoons of parsley
1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice

Add a 14 ½ ounce can of kidney beans, drained and washed.

Mix in the food processor.

Then put the mixture from the food processor into 1 cup of cooked brown rice. Note: Do not put the rice into the food processor or it will ruin the burgers.

After the mixture is well blended, form it into patties. Grill them, then place them on a bun, add a dusting of salt and pepper, lettuce and tomato.
