Veggie Burger #1

I was told I can't call these veggie burgers because they weren't served between two halves of a bun! This recipe reminds me of zucchini pancakes. The "nuggets" tasted great with a dollop of salsa on top.

Oat Nuggets

2 cups oats

milk

1 onion, minced

½ cup cheese, grated

½ teaspoon parsley

1-2 garlic cloves, minced

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon thyme

1 bay leaf

paprika, to taste

2 eggs, beaten

Cover oats with milk and soak. Add other ingredients, except eggs, and set aside for 30 minutes. Remove bay leaf. Stir in eggs. Pour by the spoonful onto a hot, oiled pan and cook on both sides.
