-----------------------------------------------------
Not the healthiest, but not too bad! It tastes like an amazing grilled cheese sandwich, except with fiber and phytonutrients.

I made these tonight, and they were gooood. I didn't have enough bread on hand to make breadcrumbs with, so I substituted with crushed up organic corn flakes, and it worked fine. I great big yum for these patties! Next time, I'll be sure to have some salsa with them. :lick:
