Here is how you make Lentil Taco Burger:

Cook lentils and rice in 2 cups water for 45 minutes, simmering over low heat in a covered pan. Allow to cool. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. I let these sit in fridge over night as they tend to fall apart. You have have to adjust the parmesan cheese for a little more "glue" Shape into patties and cook on griddle or pan (may spray with non-stick spray) over medium heat, until nicely browned (If you turn too soon they will fall apart)Number of Servings: 8I top each burger with low fat mozzarella cheese (45 calories per slice) Serving Size: Makes 8 burgers (I used 1/2 cup to measure)Number of Servings: 8Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user TAMMYC1970.
