Ever wonder what to do with all that leftover pulp you get when you use your juicer? Try mixing it up with some beans, rice and sweet potatoes for some high fiber veggie burgers!
My juice today consisted of:
- 2 cucumbers
- 4 stalks swiss chard
- 6 stalks kale
- 1 lemon
- 3 apples
- 1 inch piece of ginger
I squeezed all the excess juice out of the pulp and combined it with the following:
- 2 cooked sweet potatoes
- 1 can lentils (rinsed)
- 1 cup (measured dry) brown rice
- 1 egg
- 2 tbls olive oil
- 2 tsp cumin
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1/2 tsp curry
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 2 1/2 tsp sea salt
Preheat oven to 350 & prepare 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and olive oil. Mix all ingredients (except lentils and rice) in food processor. Pour mixture into a large bowl and add lentils and rice. Form into burger sized patties, bake @ 350 for 1 hour or more, turning halfway through.
