Ingredients:

1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped bell pepper
2 teaspoons minced garlic
3 cups vegetable broth
1 cup dry split peas, picked and rinsed
1/2 cup dry brown rice
1 teaspoon ground coriander
2 teaspoons ground cumin
3/4 cup plain dry bread crumbs, plus 1/4 cup for coating
2 teaspoons cajun seasoning (I make my own, but I imagine a commercial one would work, too)
1 Tbsp olive oil (more as needed)

Place the veggies, broth, peas, rice, coriander and cumin in crock pot. Cook on low for 4-5 hours, until peas are tender (I used a timer, so the peas and rice were soaking for a few hours before the cooking started).
Turn off heat and stir until combined. Stir in the 3/4 cup of bread crumbs and the cajun seasoning. Season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground pepper. Allow to cool a little.
Shape the mixture into patties and dredge on each side in the remaining 1/4 cup of bread crumbs. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat. Add patties and cook until brown on each side, approximately 3 to 4 minutes per side.
Serve immediately. Enjoy with a fresh green salad and perhaps a yummy remoulade sauce.
