Can be made 4 hours ahead & you can cut the prep time down if you're in a hurry but you will have to compensate for the extra moisture by using a dry powder egg substitute

  11. Season with salt and pepper.
  12. Shape mixture into four 1/2-inch-thick patties. (Can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover and chill.)

  15. Lightly spray patties on both sides with nonstick spray.
  16. Place patties on grill or in skillet and cook until golden brown and heated through, about three minutes per side.
