Instructions
- Combine all ingredients for lentils and put them in a crock pot to cook for 4 to 5 hours. Cook the lentils until all the liquid has been absorbed and the lentils are soft, but still hold their shape. When they are done, chill them overnight.
- The next day, add the rest of the ingredients and form the mixture into patties. Place the patties on greased baking sheets. Bake at 325 for 15 minutes.
- Cool the patties, stack in plasticware to store.
- To serve, grill patties in an iron skillet until well browned.
