Alternatively, use canned beans.

Finely chop onions and garlic in a food blender.

Add beans to the blender and pulse until mixed.

Add mixed vegetables and nuts and pulse until thoroughly combined.

Form the mixture into 12-15 patties.

Alternatively, roll into 2 large loaves or sausage shapes.

Fry or grill patties until golden brown and firm.

Bake or roast loaves until cooked through.

Shallow fry sausage shapes, turning regularly.

Slice and use patties/loaves in stir-fries, sandwiches, or as steaks.
