MUSHROOM BURGERS

This is one of our daughter's favorite mushroom veggie burgers that her friend makes. It's quick, easy and teen proof!

INGREDIENTS:

• 2 c. mushrooms, raw and chopped
• 1 tbsp. butter
• Dash of nutmeg
• Salt and cayenne pepper to taste
• 1 egg
• 1/4 c. onion, chopped
• 1/4 c. green pepper, chopped
• 1 c. whole wheat bread crumbs
• 1 tomato
• Slices of red onion
• Leaves of lettuce
• Buns
  

Saute mushrooms in butter.

Season with nutmeg, salt and pepper.

Place mushrooms in mixing bowl with beaten egg, add onion, green pepper, and shape into patties.

Add more bread crumbs if needed to hold together.

Fry patties in a little butter in hot skillet.

Melt a slice of cheese on top for cheese - mushroom burgers.

Serve with lettuce, tomatoes and sliced red onion.

Serve on whole wheat buns, sesame seed buns, or pita bread which is my favorite!

Serves 4 or 5.
