Curried Walnut Grain Burgers

"This is from the George Foreman Great Grilling Recipe book. Being soy intolerant, I can never eat regular veggie burgers. These are a snap to throw together, especially if you have left over brown rice. I love the carrot, curry and walnut together...really delicious!"

  1. This tasted great and was easy to make. We don't have an electric grill, so I just cooked them on a non stick skillet and that worked great. A unique taste indeed, and a great alternative to the same old vegi burger. I really like the taste of the yogurt with curry and walnuts. I also added a chopped up chili pepper 'cause we like things spicy. Thanks for posting this. It's a keeper.
     
  2. This may be one of the stranger things I have cooked but it was very good. I used the brown rice, egg beaters and no cayenne. I cooked it on a George Forman grill. The texture of the patty was close to ground beef and had a great taste. I think it made about 5 or 6 patties but I did add more bread crumbs as it was a little wet. If you cook it until it ALMOST gets black it really gives it a good taste.
     
  3. I gave this 5 stars. I had these in a diabetic cooking class and are they are so yummy. My copy of the recipe is slightly diffferent. The recipe calls for 1/2 cup cholesterol free egg substitute, 1/4 tsp salt, we used the brown rice, garnish burgers with honey mustard, thinly sliced cucumber or apple, alfalfa sprouts. The rest of the ingredients is the same. Cook time is slightly different the recipe says to spray grill with nonstick cooking spray and grill 5-6 minutes per side until done. We cooked our burgers in a frying pan at the class. Thanks for posting a great recipe. Christine (internetnut)

I live in a small town in Oregon, still awaiting our first stop light. I work in a neighboring town as a small animal veterinarian, part-time. I have a four year old daughter and a 2 year old son. I have two large horses, a miniature horse, one dog and one cat. My husband and I enjoy anything in the out of doors. Besides spending time with family and our animals, my family and I enjoy being involved in our church and spending time with friends. Although many of my recipes posted are of desserts I like to make for family or friends, I have for the last several years ascribed to a healthier lifestyle...eating lots of protein, veggies and fruits. No, I am not a low carber....I eat the right carbs....brown rice, whole wheat bread and all in moderation. I do have several recipes posted that I use often that adhere to these guidelines. When you combine eating nutrient dense foods with monitoring your caloric intake, you can't help but be healthy! There is an awesome free website that you can use along with Zaar to help meet these goals. It is www.calorie-count.com. It takes a day or two to learn how to use it...but it is a fantastic resource for anyone wanting to analyze what they eat and figure out what your caloric expenditures and allowances should be. Like Zaar it also had a wonderful community of people with a common interest...staying healthy while enjoying foods. OK...enough of the plug...but I really do love that website! Zaar has been great for finding recipes that fit this lifestyle...many recipes can simply be modified to be healthy. The variety this gives us has made the difference in getting the whole family to eat that way....that's right...I don't think my daughter has tasted white bread more than two to three times in her life!!! On all four of her birthdays she turned up her nose at the cake I baked her (a once a year exception)....which made me so happy!! So thank you Zaar....for contributing to our healthy lifestyle...couldn't do it without you!!!
