I ate a lot of meat this weekend and needed to lighten up for a few days. The result: veggie burgers.
I topped mine with some jalapeno jack, lettuce and a bit of mayo on a ciabatta roll. Really hit the spot!

Recipe:
3 cups cooked rice
1 bag chopped spinach (frozen worked well)
1 clove minced garlic (I add more usually)
1 cup minced each: onion, celery, carrot, mushroom
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1/8 tsp each: marjoram, oregano, basil, nutmeg, black pepper, thyme, chili powder
A few (3-4) shakes of Tabasco
Bread crumbs
Shredded mozzarella
Saute onion, celery, carrot, mushroom with spices and Tabasco until tender. Add spinach, saute until tender. Drain. Mix with rice. Add bread crumbs and mozzarella until the mix will bind. Form patties. Bake 30min @ 350.
Makes 8 big burgers. Don't skimp on the spices!
