Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ½ cups lentils
1 carrot, sliced
½ cup corn
½ cup pea
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, we used vegan
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 clove garlic

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, soak the lentils in cold water for 3 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 400ºF (200ºC). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a food processor, combine the soaked lentils, carrot, corn, peas, vegan cheese, oregano, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and garlic, and pulse until well mixed.
  • Take about 1 tablespoon worth of mixture and form it into a nugget with your hands.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown.
  • Or, pan fry with a small drizzle of oil over medium-high heat until both sides are golden brown, about 10 minutes.
  • Allow to cool 5 minutes.
  • Enjoy!
