This recipe is from vegetarian_group at yahoo groups contributed by Judy.


Big Vegetarian Macs

3 c. quick oats(uncooked)
3 c. walnuts
1 1/2 c. water
2 med. onions quartered
3/4 c. unsweetened soy milk or cow's milk
3 T. soy sauce 
1 tsp. sage
1 1/2 Tbsp salt
1 (15 oz) can of garbanzo beans/chick peas, drained

Blend all of the ingredients(except oats) until everything is in very small pieces/almost smooth. Pour over the oats and mix well. Let sit for 30 minutes or overnight. Line two large cookie sheets with parchment paper. Use a large cookie scoop and scoop up a full scoop, put on parchment paper. Use your hand to press mixture together and flatten into a circle about 1/2 inch thick. Continue doing this until all of the batter is used up. Spray each patty with Olive Oil non-stick baking spray and adds almost zero calories. This helps them brown up better. Bake in pre-heated oven at 400 for 15-20 minutes. Flip and spray the other side of the patty. Bake an additional 15 minutes or until browned. Makes 24- 26 large burgers.
