Apple Veggie Burgers

Time: 35 mins

Ingredients

• 4 slices sandwich bread (stale or toasted)
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 1 granny smith apple, grated
• 1/2 bell pepper, chopped (I use red)
• 1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh ginger
• 1 cup cooked rice
• 1 egg
• 3 tablespoons rolled oats (ground in food processor)
• salt, to taste
• black pepper, to taste
• 2 teaspoons vegetable oil

Directions

• 1 Chop the bread very fine, or break into pieces and throw in a food processor, breaking it into crumbs.
• 2 Transfer to a large mixing bowl, and add the onions.
• 3 Squeeze the grated apples lightly to remove excess juice, then add to the bowl, along with the bell pepper, ginger, rice, egg, and half the ground oats.
• 4 Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• 5 Form mixture into 1 1/2-inch thick patties.
• 6 Heat oil in a large skillet, over medium heat. Coat the patties with the remaining ground oats and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until browned slightly.
• 7 Serve with hot sauce, cole slaw, or whatever else tickles your fancy.
