1. Combine lentils, bread crumbs, egg whites, spinach, carrot, onion,
Cheddar cheese, salt and pepper in a bowl. Shape into 6 equal patties.
Place on a baking sheet. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.

2. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet. Add burgers; cook 6 minutes,
turning over once halfway through cooking.

3. Meanwhile, if preparing the mayonnaise, mix together mayonnaise, mustard
and catsup in a small bowl.

4. Place burgers in buns and serve with mayonnaise if using.

NOTE: Recipe calls for 8 buns, instructions say to make 6 patties; I might
not be a rocket scientist, but unless this only serves 6, two people are
going to get some real lean burgers!!!--Glen
