Ingredients

Lentil Burger Mix

  • 1 can brown lentils about 15 ounces, drained
  • 1/3 cup chickpea flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

  • 1/4 cup onion
  • 1/4 cup bell pepper
  • 8 small tortillas

Burger Sauce

  • 1/2 cup vegan mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon mustard
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons sweet relish
  • 1/2 cup vegan mayon

Instructions

  • Mash the lentils in a bowl until mostly broken down, leaving some texture.
  • Add chickpea flour, salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, regular paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and ketchup. Mix well.
  • Pulse mushrooms, onion, and bell pepper in a food processor until finely chopped.
  • Add the chopped vegetables to a dry skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes to release moisture.
  • Stir the cooked vegetables into the lentil mixture.
  • Take about a golf-ball-sized amount of lentil mixture and press it thinly onto one side of a tortilla.
  • Place the tortilla lentil-side down in a hot skillet. Cook for a few minutes until browned and set.
  • Flip and cook briefly on the tortilla side until warm and slightly crisp.
  • Mix vegan mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup, and sweet relish to make the burger sauce.
  • Top each taco with romaine, white onion, tomato, and burger sauce. Fold and serve.
