Makes 12 burgers

As a mostly-veg who doesn’t like many vegetables, I have problems with most veggie burgers. Not these though! They aren’t made of broccoli and squash, they don’t try to taste like meat, and they have real protein in them! Hurrah!

1 cup chopped toasted walnuts (or pine nuts or...)
2 eggs, beaten
1 tsp oregano

2 tsp mustard

1 1/2 cup diced onion
1 1/2 cup wheat germ
3/4 cup milk
2 Tbs olive oil
Salt and pepper
