1
Cook the lentils in boiling water until tender, approx 15 minutes. Drain well and place into a bowl.
2
Place the beans into a food processor and pulse until relatively smooth. Do the same with the red bell and carrot. Drain some of the liquid from the pepper as well.
3
Place all the ingredients, except for the olive oil, into the bowl with the lentils. I didn't use any salt and pepper and didn't feel like it was missing when it came time to eat but you can certainly season to your taste.
4
Form into 5 even patties. In a large frying pan, over medium heat, add in the olive oil and cook the burgers for approx 5 on the first side. Flip it and sprinkle on the mozzarella. Cover the pan until melted, and cook a total of 5 minutes on the second side as well. Basically everything is cooked, you are just looking to heat through and crisp up the outside.
