This is an easy recipe inspired by Egg Foo Young. You can serve the patties plain or add a nut-based Basic Gravy (similar to a real Egg Foo Young). This recipe is perfect for diabetics because it is based on lentils (a legume).

This recipe is very good! At first bite, my husband said, this is a keeper. I made the Asian Slaw to go with this plus whole grain Jasmine rice. I will hang on to this recipe!
