Spicy Lentil Walnut Burgers

Last year, in an attempt to eat healthier, I bought several different types of dried lentils (brown, red, yellow). A short time later, I inherited even more lentils from Amy when she moved across the world to Australia. Since I came into this wealth of lentils, I think I have cooked lentils ZERO times. This needed to change...

Enter the Other Martha's Spicy Lentil-Walnut Burgers... perfect! Spicy, earthy, easy... plus the burgers help me get over one of my main consistency hang-ups with lentils- they get super crispy on the outside if you cook them slow-and-low. The burgers are pretty big, so be sure to get the larger sized pitas. They also fall apart a little bit, which isn't the end of the world, but not very picturesque (sorry!). The leftovers were great the next day heated up in the toaster oven and served over a green salad with feta, olives, and a vinaigrette.

Mini Burgers!

For dinner tonight Tony made these kick-ass mini burgers, complete with special sauce.
Mmmm... the recipe is highly recommended, and Tony did a great job. He even artfully arranged them for their photo shoot.
We made the executive decision that mini burgers trump regular sized burgers. Easier to hold, easier to eat, cuter.

Burgers a la Sasha Vujic

And for the main course, Jennifer resurrected an oldie but goodie, care of Sasha Vujic... burgers with onion, Worcestershire, brown sugar, olive oil and S&P.
Served with CSA tomato and lettuce.
Little dent in the raw burger is Bobby Flay's advice... prevents the burgers from poofing up once they hit the grill.
