Vegan Fat Free Lentil & Corn Patties - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 1/2 cups fresh corn kernels (about 3 ears) or 1 1/2 cups frozen corn
    1 cup onion, chopped
    1 teaspoon fresh thyme, minced or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
    1 cup cooked lentils
    1/2 cup fresh breadcrumb
    2 tablespoons cornmeal, divided
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
    1 tablespoon ground flax seeds (optional)
    cooking spray
Preparation
    Cook lentils in water or veggie broth until tender, about 30-40 minutes.
    Heat 1 tablespoon water in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add corn, onion, and thyme; saute 2 minutes.
    Place onion mixture, lentils, breadcrumbs, 2 tablespoons cornmeal, salt, flaxseed, water and red pepper in a food processor. Pulse 2 times or until combined and chunky - or mash by hand.
    Divide lentil mixture into 4-6 equal portions, shaping each into a 1/2-inch-thick patty.
    Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat.
    Add patties; cook 5 minutes. Carefully turn patties over; cook 5 minutes or until golden. Enjoy!
