ingredients

• 1 6.5 oz. jar of Cara Mia Marinated Artichokes drained
• 1 medium onion
• 2 cans white beans drained
• 1 egg beaten
• 1 cup rolled oats
• 1 tbsp sun dried tomatoes
• salt and pepper
• 6 multigrain buns
• STAR Original Olive oil
• Garnishes for burger

directions:

1. Cut a medium onion into chunks and put it in a food processor, along with beans, Cara Mia Artichokes, rolled oats, egg sun dried tomatoes and salt and pepper.
2. Pulse, stopping occasionally to scrape the sides as necessary.  If it’s too dry, add water; too wet, add more rolled oats.
3. Take a frying pan and coat the bottom with a little STAR Original Olive Oil. When the oil is heated, spoon the mixture into the pan making burger size patties. Cook them until nicely browned each side. Be careful when turning as they tend to fall apart easily.
4. Serve on a multigrain bun with whatever condiments and garnishes you like.
