1 medium bell pepper, diced
1 medium carrot, diced
2 cloves garlic, diced

2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon turmeric
1 cup bread crumbs (we recommend sprouted grain bread, stale, and torn into small pieces and ground in a food processer)
Method for Lentil Burger Recipe:
- In a saucepan place lentils, water, and salt, bring to a boil, lower heat, cover, and simmer for until water is nearly gone and lentils are soft, with splitting skins (about 45 minutes).
- Sauté the onion, carrot, and bell pepper in oil until softer (about 3 minutes) then add garlic and continue for 30 seconds.
- Mix the lentils, onions, carrots, pepper, turmeric, and soy sauce in large bowl.
- Add the ground oats and bread crumbs, mix.
- Form the lentil mixture into patties (should still be warm), which can now be frozen, refrigerated for a few days, or cooked immediately.
