"Burgers that taste like hamburgers, but without meat! You can replace the Cheddar cheese with Monterey Jack or any other cheese you like. If you prefer, you may use a 1.4 ounce packet of brown broth in place of the soy sauce." 

 

• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 1 small onion, grated
• 2 cloves crushed garlic
• 2 carrots, shredded
• 1 small summer squash, shredded
• 1 small zucchini, shredded
• 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
• 1/4 cup shredded Cheddar (or Monterey Jack cheese)
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce (or 1.4 ounce packet of brown broth)
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 

To Make:

1. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over low heat, and cook the onion and garlic for about 5 minutes, until tender. Mix in the carrots, squash, and zucchini. Continue to cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove pan from heat, and mix in oats, cheese, and egg. Stir in soy sauce, transfer the mixture to a bowl, and refrigerate 1 hour.

2. Preheat the grill for high heat.

3. Place the flour on a large plate. Form the vegetable mixture into eight 3 inch round patties. Drop each patty into the flour, lightly coating both sides.

4. Oil the grill grate, and grill patties 5 minutes on each side, or until heated through and nicely browned.
