A yummy little patty that I make regularly. It was one of my first dehydrator items; I usually put it together in the morning and then they are ready for dinner! Recipe by Alissa Cohen.
Ingredients:
4 medium carrots
1 cup pecans
1 cup mushrooms (recipe states "button", but I love using portabellos
too)
1 cup onion
3 tablespoon cilantro
2 tablespoon olive oil
½ teaspoon sea salt
1
pinch black pepper
Preparation:
Remember to add some herbs to taste! The original recipe calls for .5 teaspoon each of dried fennel, coriander, and curry…however feel free to play with this and experiment.
In a food processor, blend carrots until diced. Add the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. Remove from processor and form into burgers. Place burger on a mesh dehydrator screen and dehydrate at 105 for 7-8 hours.
They darken up in the dehydrator and even resemble a real meat patty, but they taste better than any meat patty!

Hey! It's Katrina, Scott's wife. I didn't see a way to add 'friends' or anything... Anyhoo, I have these in the dehydrator right now, and they do smell amazingly 'meaty' only much better annd earthy.

We LOVE it! I just had them with a salad. Next time, I will do an open face with marinated mushrooms, onion, tomatoes, and avacado.
Thanks & Smiles,

I have not been on the forum recently, as I received my Excalibur! Yeah! I tried this recipe and I made it for the SECOND TIME today! LOVE IT! LOVE IT! LOVE IT!
I put 1tbsp dried cilantro and 1tbsp sage, b/c I don't like cilantro much. I used baby portabella mushrooms! My kids love it too! :-)

These are delicious. Don't leave out the fennel - it really makes it special (at least for an anise/fennel/licorice addict!). My non-raw friend loved these - I tucked a few in an Ezekiel tortilla with nut butter dressing (see recipe), lettuce & tomatoes.

These are awesome. They have a similar texture to the veggie burgers I used to eat. You can play with the seasoning, I didnā€™t have three of the spices the recipe asked for so I put in what I had and they still taste great. You can also customize this to meatloaf and taco meat.

I have the book by Alissa Cohen and I tried this recipe. I didn't have any mushrooms but it still tasted great! the curry sauce she recommends for the recipes gives it an extra notch.

Thanks for sharing this. I love a one-day dehydrating recipe!
