Re: Burgers!!!__________________________________________________________________

	Hello?  Hello?  Is anybody out there?  I'm still waiting for some
vegetarian burger recipes...
	By the way, I should clarify something I said in my last article when
reviewing commercial mixes.  "Love Burger" is the one I don't like.  "Nature's
Burger", which is made by Fantastic Foods, is a good one.  It even tells you
how to make smaller quantities!
	I also forgot to mention one of my favorites, a Swiss burger mix called
Fritini.  Here's a list of the ingredients in Fritini:

		    Shredded whole wheat and rye,
		    soybean protein, dehydrated
		    potatoes, toasted bread crumbs,
		    oat flakes, millet flakes, pea
		    flour, sea salt, dehydrated
		    carrots, onions and parsley,
		    spices.

Does anyone have a recipe for burgers that's anything like this?  It's a lot
like stuffing...
	Here are some more recipes.  Please send yours in, too!

*** VegeMillet Burgers ***

Place a large pot on medium heat and add a T. OIL.  When oil is hot add 1 C.
MILLET and 8 t. CAYENNE RED PEPPER and stir until millet smells nutty, about
2-3 minutes.  Add 3 C. BOILING WATER (with 1 t. SEA SALT in it) and reduce heat
to a simmer.  Simmer, covered, for 35-40 min.  Add 3/4 C. GRATED CARROT, 3/4 C.
MINCED ONION, and 1/2 C. MINCED PARSLEY about 5 min. before done.  Add 1/2 C.
WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR and 1/4 C. SOY FLOUR and mix well to avoid lumps.  Let mixture
sit for 15-20 min. until cool enough to handle.  Heat OIL in frying pan.  Form
mixture into thick patties and fry 3-4 min. on each side.  Makes 18-20 burgers.

*** Pinto Burgers ***

Mash 2 1/2 C. COOKED PINTO BEANS (1.C DRIED PINTO BEANS) well with 2 EGGS,
beaten; 1 LARGE ONION, minced; 1 CARROT, grated; and 1 1/2 t. SALT (purely
optional - I don't use it).  If hot, stir until cool enough to handle.  Add 1 C.
WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR a little at a time and mix thoroughly.  Form into patties
about 3" diameter and 1/2" thick - they'll be rather sticky.  Fry in 1/4" or so
of hot OIL for 2-3 min. on each side; drain before serving.  Makes ~12 burgers.
