| 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper and/or cooking spray. | 2. Measure and pack 1 cup of cooked mashed sweet potatoes and put into a medium size bowl. (If pre-packaged, put the bowl of sweet potatoes into the microwave for about a minute to reach lukewarm temperature, and then set the bowl aside). | 3. Measure 1 cup of frozen black eye peas and put into a microwavable bowl. Defrost the black eye peas in the microwave approximately 2-4 min (based on oven wattage) until they are soft, but not mushy. Mash the black eye peas with a fork and put the bowl aside for a minute. | 4. Dice and finely chop ¼ cup of red onions put aside into a small container. | 5. Combine the black eye pea mixture into the bowl of mashed sweet potatoes. With a fork, mix the sweet potatoes and black eye peas together. Slowly fold in the chopped onions. | 6. Next, add 2-3 tablespoons of honey mustard (to suit your taste) for seasoning and fold into the potato mixture. | 7. Add in the rest of the spices and optional seasonings if desired. | 8. Finally, add 1/8 cup of psyllium husks (or oat bran if not available) to help to bind the mixture together. | 9. Divide the mixture into 4-6 equal parts (see note below). Take a spoon and put a portion of the mixture onto the baking sheet for each patty. Mash each patty down into a round form with a spoon/fork. Make sure that you allow enough space between the patties so they don’t stick to each other. | 10. Put the baking sheet into the preheated oven for a total of approximately 35-40 minutes. Make sure to check each patties no more than 15 minutes after they start baking. Flip the patties over with a spatula when they start to turn brown and firm. Recheck the patties again in another 10-15 minutes, and remove when they are done to your liking! | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
