Empty the fridge vegie burgers!

I realised that I had a lot of leftovers in the fridge so decided to throw them together today and see if they turned into anything edible.

Here's the results

2 cups cooked lentils/beans/chickpeas/dhal. Mashed.
2 cups cooked cold rice it can be plain or the leftover risotto you made a couple of days ago.
1 cup dry quick cook oats
handful of chopped chives from your garden
handful of grated cheese (leftover from tacos a few days ago)
2 eggs.
two teaspoons of vegie stock powder

Mix the whole lot together and leave to sit for ten minutes. Then form into hamburger patties and pan fry till crunchy and golden. Serve with salad in homemade burger buns!

The flavour will change with every empty the fridge you do. If you have curried lentils, you get curried burgers, Mexican beans gives you a Mexican burger, risotto/plain lentils makes a nice chive ricey burger.

Enjoy!

God Kel, I am searching on your blog now in case I have accidentally plaigerised anything! Only discovered your site this morning via dance of the small things so can't think how that may have happened!

Perhaps some cosmic group taurean thought pattern happening around food?
