Lentil Smashburger Tacos

Recipe from Tapped In Wellness

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup Lentils, cooked and drained

1/2 of an Onion

1/4 of a Red Bell Pepper

4-5 White Mushrooms

1/2 cup Oats

2 tbs of Ketchup

1 tsp each: salt, pepper, smoked paprika, dried thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, nutritional yeast

Tortillas

Burger sauce

1/3 cup vegan mayo

3 tbs ketchup

1 tbs mustard

2 tbs sweet relish

Squeeze of lemon

Toppings

diced lettuce and tomatoes

sliced pickles

INSTRUCTIONS Add your peppers, onions and mushroom to a food processor. Pulse until all is roughly chopped and around the same size. Sauté this mixture in a pan over medium heat until most of the moisture has cooked out (optionally sprinkle salt to draw out more water). Remove from pan and set aside. In a small food processor add the oats and spice and blend until roughly combined. Then in a large bowl add the lentils, cooked veggies, blended oats and ketchup and mash to form the patty mix and it holds shape. Form patty on a tortilla and cook patty side down and optionally add a weight on top to keep it flat. Flip after about 3-5 mins, add some vegan cheese and steam to melt. For burger sauce add all ingredients in a small bowl and mix. Then assemble with toppings of choice and enjoy.
