Vegan Patties like You've Never HadIngredients (use vegan versions): 3 cups cooked rice
3/4 cup nuts, chopped (I use almonds and cashews)
3/4 cup uncooked oatmeal
2 - 15 ounce cans refried beans
2 ounces soy sauce
1 to 2 tablespoons steak seasoning
1 tablespoon garlic powder
Creole and taco seasoning (optional, but I like to add them)
Directions:1) If need, cook your rice.
2) Chop the nuts. Add nuts, beans, and oatmeal to a large mixing bowl. When the rice is finished, add to the bowl. Pour in your soy sauce, trying not to let it soak into just the rice.
3) Mix together the ingredients by hand. When the mixture has been completely combined to make a paste, add your seasonings to it. Steak seasoning is a must if you're trying to please meat eaters. Taste the mixture and adjust the seasoning, as desired. Form into burgers and fry in a thin griddle on the stove. You don't need a whole lot of oil, but you do need some so they don't stick.
I cook this as meatloaf sometimes and fool omnis often. If you don't want to make a lot of burgers, you can freeze half of the mixture.
Happy eating!
