Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 1 cup dried lentils (8 oz) sorted, rinsed
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup unseasoned bread crumbs
  • 2 teaspoons salt-free southwestern chipotle seasoning
  • 1 can (11 oz) vacuum-packed whole-kernel corn with red and green peppers, drained
  • 2 eggs, slightly beaten
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 6 lettuce leaves
  • 6 round 100% whole wheat thin sandwich rolls (4 inch)
  • 3 tablespoons light mayonnaise
  • 6 tomato slices
  • 6 thin onion slices

Instructions

  • Step 
    1
    In 2-quart saucepan, heat water, lentils and salt to boiling. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 12 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lentils are tender yet hold their shape; drain. Spoon into large bowl, cool 15 minutes.
  • Step 
    2
    Into cooled lentils, lightly stir bread crumbs, seasoning, corn, and eggs. Form mixture into 6 patties about 1/2 inch thick and about 3 1/2 to 4 inches in diameter; place on platter or cookie sheet. Refrigerate 30 minutes (patties will firm up, making them easier to cook without falling apart.)
  • Step 
    3
    In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 1 1/2 teaspoons oil over medium heat. Cook 3 patties 6 to 8 minutes, turning halfway through cooking, until golden brown. Transfer from skillet to heatproof platter; cover and keep warm. Repeat with remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons oil and patties.
  • Step 
    4
    Place lettuce leaf on bottom half of each roll; top with cooked patty. Spread each with 1 1/2 teaspoons mayonnaise over patty; top with 1 slice tomato, 1 slice onion, and roll top.
