Prep Notes

Cooking Time

1 hour

Yields

6 to 8 patties

Ingredients

1/4 uncooked wild rice

1/3 cup uncooked brown rice

1/3 cup uncooked quinoa

1 small onion, chopped

1 cup mushrooms, chopped

1/2 cup uncooked oats

3 tablespoons soy sauce

1 pinch salt

1 teaspoon black pepper

3 teaspoons ground cumin

1 teaspoon ground coriander

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

3 cups cooked or canned black beans, rinsed and drained

Directions

  • Place the wild rice, brown rice, quinoa, and 1 cup water in a pan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 35 to 40 minutes

  • While your grains are cooking, chop the onion, mushrooms, and garlic.

  • When grains are done, add the oats, soy sauce, salt, pepper, cumin, coriander, and cayenne pepper.

  • Mash beans thoroughly in a bowl and add the vegetables and grains mixture. Mix well.

  • Taste and adjust seasonings as desired.

  • If your veggie meat is too wet and doesn't stick together, add more oats little by little until the mixture sticks together.

  • Form into patties. You can also wrap any unused portion and store it in the fridge for 5 to 6 days.

  • Grill the veggie burgers over medium-high heat until it turns a little bit brown and crunchy outside.
