1 red bell pepper cut into rings if desired for garnish.
Mix all ingredients in a large bowl. Don't overwork it - just combine enough to have it well mixed.
Form 4-6 round patties. Cook on med-high heat until done. If unsure, insert a thermometer - 165 F is the temp. you are aiming for.
For roasted red pepper rings, seed and slice red pepper, spritz with olive oil and bake at 425 for 20 minutes.
