1 tbsp warm water
1/2 cup chopped pecans, toasted
1 tbsp oil
6 boston lettuce leaves
6 (1 1/2 oz) whole wheat hamburger buns (100% whole wheat

Directions:

Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced onion to pan and sauté 18-20 minutes or until browned, stirring occasionally. Mix vinegar, sugar, and 1/8 teaspoon salt together and stir in to skillet. Cook 30 seconds or until vinegar is absorbed. Remove onion mixture from pan; keep warm. Wipe pan dry with a paper towel.

Reheat large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and coat pan with cooking spray. Add chopped onion and garlic to pan and sauté 5-8 minutes or until tender.
Place potato, chopped onion mixture, oats, cumin, 3/4 teaspoon salt, pepper and warm water in a food processor; process until smooth. Place potato mixture in a large bowl and stir in nuts. Divide potato mixture into 6 equal portions, shaping each into a 1/2-inch-thick patty.
Wipe pan dry with a paper towel. Heat 1 1/2 teaspoons oil in pan over medium-high heat. Add 3 patties to pan; cook 4-6 minutes or until browned. Carefully turn patties over; cook 3 minutes or until browned. Remove from pan; keep warm. Repeat procedure with remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons oil and 3 patties.
