Thai Basil Burger

For burgers, in saucepan, combine lentils with 3 cups water. Cover and cook on medium heat for 10-12 minutes until lentils are cooked but still firm. Strain and set aside.

Meanwhile, in medium bowl, combine sweet potato, cilantro, basil, garlic, curry powder, ginger, garlic powder, soy sauce and lime juice. Add 2 cups cooked lentils. Add egg and oats; mix to combine well.

Form ½ cup of mixture into ball and tightly flatten to form a burger patty. (Mixture will be slightly wet.) Repeat to make six patties; place each patty onto parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate 10 minutes.

Meanwhile for slaw, in small bowl, mix well cole slaw mix, sweet peppers, mayonnaise, salt and vinegar; set aside.

Heat a cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to pan and heat. Add one to two patties; cook 2 minutes on each side until golden brown. Repeat with remaining patties.

To serve, top each bun with a cooked burger patty and an apple slice; add ¼ cup slaw mixture on top.
