This one's awesome; even confirmed lima-haters like 'em.

 

Chicago Veggie Cheeseburgers

 

3 c cooked frozen (not canned!) lima beans, mashed

1 c plain bread crumbs

3 egg whites

1 c fresh spinach or chard, cooked, finely chopped

(frozen spinach is okay, but don't

substitute canned!)

1/2 c carrots, cooked, chopped

1/2 c green onion, chopped

1 c cheddar cheese (about 4 oz.), shredded

1 tsp salt

1/8 tsp black pepper

2 Tbsp butter

8 whole-wheat buns

[A little sauteed garlic or garlic powder if

desired]

 

1) Combine limas, bread crumbs, egg whites, spinach, carrot, onion,

Cheddar cheese, salt and pepper in a bowl. Shape into 6 equal patties.

Place on a baking sheet. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.

 

2) Heat the butter in a large nonstick skillet. Add burgers; cook 6

minutes,

turning over once halfway through cooking. Place burgers in buns and

garnish.
