Cook lentils in 2 cups water for 25 minutes, until tender. Drain, uncover, and allow to cool.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Farenhet. Sautee mushrooms, onions, and garlic on low until cooked through, about 10 minutes.
Remove from heat.
Add seasonings, lentils, and rice to the mushroom-onion-garlic mixture. Stir until combined.
Combine rolled quinoa, vital wheat gluten and flaxseed. Add in vegetable broth and combine.
Form into patties and place on lined baking sheet. Makes 20-30 patties, depending on desired size.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, until firm, golden, and somewhat dry, turning each patty over after about 20 minutes.
Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.
Notes
• This recipe is a great way to use leftover rice and lentils.• Rolled quinoa are really small flakes. If you don’t have any, rolled oats work great – pulse in food processor to break them up just a little. (You aren’t looking for flour.)These patties freeze extremely well in the freezer. Simply thaw and reheat in the skillet when ready to use.
