Eat to Live Cookbook Giveaway!

Recently, I was a finalist in a recipe contest over on www.drfuhrman.com. The winning prize was a Vitamix 5200 blender. Well, as I already have TWO Vitamix blenders, I planned to give away the prize should I win. Well, there is a lucky winner out there and it was not me BUT the folks at Dr. Furhman decided to give all of the finalists a signed copy of Eat to Live the Cookbook. I am pretty familiar with how the Doc likes all Nutritarians to eat after working with him for a couple of years on a few different projects so I have decided to have a Cookbook Giveaway!!
Thats right! And everyone is a winner with the recipe for G-Bombs Burgers! (below)
This is the first time I'm having an official BLOG giveaway and I have enlisted the folks at Rafflecopter. Let's hope it works! You have from Midnight tonight (Feb 7, 2014) until Midnight on Sunday (Feb 9, 2014) Here is the link:

G-Bombs Burger
MiMi McGee
Serves: 15
Preparation Time: 30 minutes
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups rolled oats
2 cups cooked brown rice
3 pounds chopped frozen spinach (thawed & lightly drained)
5 tablespoons ground flax seed
10 tablespoons water (mix water with flax meal to make flax eggs)
2 cups chopped mushrooms
10 ounces (2 medium) cooked sweet potatoes
1 cup mashed cooked beans (we use kidney - either white or red)
1 cup sunflower seeds (soaked and sprouted if you desire)
1 cup or 1 large red onion, diced small
3 tablespoons a blend of onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, sage, oregano to taste OR
3 tablespoons of your favorite NO SALT spice mixture such as Dr. Fuhrman's Vegizest or Matozest. We use different Frontier blends to flavor the patties different ways.
Instructions:
Mix ingredients together and allow to sit, preferable overnight. Pulsing part of mixture in a food processor blends the ingredients nicely and can make the patties easier to form.

Form into patties. I make mine with a 3 ounce scoop and a canning jar lid for uniformity however you can use a burger mold or just use your hands!

Place on baking sheet lined with silpat or parchment paper. Bake in 400 degree (non-convection) oven for 18 – 20 minutes per side.

Baste patties with optional miso-glaze if desired while flipping. Make glaze from 1 tablespoon of your favorite low sodium miso mixed with 1/2 cup hot (not boiling) water. Leave off miso if lower sodium is desired.

Makes 30 (3 ounce) patties. I figured a serving was 2 patties per person. I use at least 3 tablespoons of herbs, seasonings but it varies depending on the flavor I'm going for. This is why I recommend the Frontier (or Dr. Fuhrman's own)
