Heat oil in skillet; cook garlic until golden. Add onions, mushrooms,
chard, tamari and rice vinegar. Cook, covered, until vegetables are
softened. Place vegetable mixture and the bulgar in food processor or
blender; pulse several times until well blended. Scrape into large bowl and
add ground pecans and bread crumbs. Mis with spoon or hands until all
ingredients are thoroughly combined. Form into pattied One half inch thick and 3
inches diameter. Preheat broiler. Place patties on cookie sheet and broil
35 inches from heat, 7 to 9 minutes per side or until lightly browned.
When one side is done, turn patties carefully with spatula. Serving
suggestions: on whole wheat bun, or focaccia bread, with shredded lettuce
or cabbage, sweet onion rings, or a gravy. (My note: we ate once as a
burgeronabun, another as a cutlet entree with light vegetable gravy. I
can attest that they are also delicious cold right out of the
refrigerator!)
