Add the sauteed vegetables, tahini, seasonings, sesame seeds, sunflower seed meal, and corn meal. The batter should be thick not wet--add flour if needed. Preheat oven to 375. Oil a cookie sheet. Using a tablespoon, make patties and place them on the sheet. Bake for 8 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
