Veggie Patties

Some really good veggie patties I made.I make them and freeze them so I can have them whenever I want. They are much better then the pre bought and a lot less expensive. They are so easy especially when you have a rice cooker which I recommend getting. I cook all my grains in my rice cooker, quinoa , rice, etc and I always just press the white rice button. Everything has always come out really good.
For my patties I used a mixture of sweet brown rice, red beans, black beans, corn, mung beans, millet, green peas and black sweet rice. If you want you can use quinoa and black beans to make it easy. If you have anything eles on hand, throw it in there.

Ingredients:
2 cups mixed grains/beans. 
1/3 fresh herbs ( I used basil and parsley)
3 minced garlic cloves
Salt and pepper
1 cup of  shredded cheese ( I didn't use any but this will help it stick together)
1/2 chopped bell pepper
1/2 small red onion

Directions:
Cook grains/beans in rice cooker. I let them sit an hour first then cook them. 1:2 parts water. When they are finished add all ingredients and mix well. Add salt and pepper. Form patties. I made about 8 depending on the size you want.
I used a sandwhich thin for my sandwhich. For garnish I used avocado, romaine lettuce, red bell pepper, onions and a roasted red pepper hummus on the bread. It was very good!
