Ingredients
burger mixture:
1½-3 cups walnut pieces
2 cups rolled oats
½ cup breadcrumbs
3 or 4 eggs, slightly beaten
½ cup skim milk
1 large onion, chopped fine
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp sage
1 tsp salt
freshly ground black pepper to taste
for cooking burgers:
oil to brown patties
3 cups vegetable stock
for serving:
hamburger buns and any desired burger fixings
Directions
Grind walnuts in blender and combine with the rest of the burger mixture ingredients.
Let the mixture rest in refrigerator for about an hour to let the flavors meld together.
Form the mixture into patties. The entire mixture will make 8-12 burgers depending on the size patty formed. It is recommended to use half of the mixture now, and reserve the rest for use in another recipe or for more burgers later.
Brown patties on both sides in a lightly oiled skillet, then pour the stock into the skillet and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 25 minutes.
Serve on buns with all your burger fixings.
