Lentil Walnut Burgers

 

Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cups dry green lentils
  • 1 1/2 cups of water
  • 2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup finely chopped onion
  • 4 large cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup cup finely chopped walnuts
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 5 large kale leaves, stems removed and chopped

1. Place lentils in a pot and bring to a boil.  Lower heat and simmer, partially covered, for about 30 minutes, or until the lentils are soft and the liquid is gone.  Transfer to a medium-sized bowl, add vinegar and mash well.

2. Heat oil in a medium frying pan, add onions and sauté over medium heat for about 5 minutes, add all remaining ingredients and cook for 10 minutes until the vegetables are cooked.  Add all ingredients in a bowl and chill for an hour before forming patties.

3. Form burgers in  frying pan, cook on both sides for 5-8 minutes.

From the New Moosewood Cookbook with modifications.

 

Kale and Herb Pesto

1 bunch of washed and stemmed kale
1 bunch of parsley or cilantro or basil
1/2 cup toasted walnuts (sub pumpkin seeds to make nut free and school friendly)
1/2 cup toasted sunflower seeds
1/2 cup olive oil
2 cloves garlic
1/2 tsp salt

Process the nuts/seeds in a food processor, add fresh herbs and kale and remaining ingredients.  Process until smooth.  Adjust to taste.  Serve on pasta, add to sandwiches, on pizza, you name it it goes.  Also freezes really well to be pulled out as needed.
