What You'll Need:

1 ¼ whole (not split) lentils (or 2 cans lentils, drained & rinsed)

1 c gluten free rolled oats

1 small red onion, quartered

1 egg

1 Tbsp olive oil

½ Tbsp chili powder

1 tsp sea salt

½ tsp black pepper

Desired fixings: Think…pickles, spinach, lettuce, sprouts, salsa, tomato, onion, mustard, avocado, cheese, a bun or wrap…whatever your heart desires!


If cooking lentils, cover with water & a pinch of sea salt. Bring a boil & simmer for about 20 minutes, or until tender.

While lentils cook, pulse oats in a food processor or blender into a course flour. Add onion, egg, oil & spices. Pulse to combine.

Drain cook lentils & rinse with cool water. Add to food processor & pulse one last time to combine. Use a half cup measure to scoop lentil mixture & form into (5) patties.

Heat a large skillet or griddle to medium-high heat* Sear patties until browned (about 4 minutes each side).

Portion into (5) containers with desired fixings for easy grab & go lunches all week long or dive right in & be so happy!

Serves 5.
