My daughter's boyfriend's mom gave her a cookbook that was created by the Houston Ballet for their Nutcracker Christmas Market in 1984. The recipes in the book were submitted by directors, choreographers, and dancers in the Houston Ballet that year. This recipe was submitted by Sandra Organ, Corps de Ballet.

These burgers were a bit bland for my taste. I think they could have used some more seasoning.

I'm not a huge fan of lentils, but I still liked these burgers. They were a good way to get my daily dose of protein and fiber.

These burgers were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add some extra moisture next time, maybe by adding some grated vegetables or a sauce.
