A lentil burger is a great alternative to a traditional beef patty. It is packed with flavor and nutrients, and can be grilled or pan-fried. In this recipe, we top the lentil burger with grilled pineapple and mixed greens for a healthy and delicious meal.
Recipe
Serves 4
2 cups cooked brown lentils
1 onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped
3 tablespoons ground flax
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 tablespoon of water or vegetable broth
1 tablespoon coconut oil (for frying)
4 pineapple slices
4 cups mixed greens
How to Prepare
Combine lentils, onion, garlic, flax, sea salt, thyme, and curry powder in a large mixing bowl. Mash the ingredients well with a fork and form into burger patties. Add water or vegetable broth if the mixture is dry. Melt coconut oil in pan over high heat. Fry each burger until brown on both sides (about 3 to 5 minutes per side). Once the burgers are done, set to the side. Briefly fry the pineapple slices for about 2 minutes per side and place on top of the burgers. Serve with mixed greens and your favorite salad dressing.
