Carrot Patties vegetarian burgers  

These Golden Jewels are so good. We like to eat them hot as a burger with mayo and tomato slices and crisp green lettuce, or ground mustard or even cold with a piece of cheese. You might like to experiment with different spices and flavorings that appeal to your family, a very versatile dish.

2 cups shredded carrots
2 eggs beaten
1/2 c mayo
2 TBS Olive oil
1/4 cup finely chopped onion (I like red or white)
1/2 TBS Chopped Garlic (or to taste)
6 cups of soft breadcrumbs
salt pepper parsley to taste
4 cups whole wheat flake cereal, crushed

oven to 375* F Place carrots in a bowl, and microwave until tender for 2-3 minutes. (we do not have a microwave so I just put them in a steam basket over boiling water for a couple minutes)

In a large bowl stir together the beaten eggs, mayo, onion, garlic, oil, seasonings and carrots. Add the breadcrumbs and mix till evenly blended.
Shape the mixture into patty portions then dip into the cereal to coat. Place on a greased baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes, turning half way through. They are done when golden brown.

Enjoy!
