Easy Black Bean Veggie Burger

Servings 4 burgers

Ingredients

  • 2 cans black beans
  • 1 yellow pepper
  • 1 egg
  • 10 crushed crackers I used low sodium wheat thins
  • drizzle of olive oil
  • 2-3 tsp garlic powder
  • 2-3 tsp onion powder
  • 2-3 tsp season salt
  • 2-3 tsp chili powder
  • 2-3 tsp cumin
  • 2-3 tsp paprika

Instructions

  1. Drain black beans and rinse, be sure to shake off extra water.

  2. Chop yellow pepper into small pieces. 

  3. Put crackers into a bag and crush with rolling pin into a fine grain. 

  4. In a a large bowl of mash beans into paste. Combine yellow pepper, egg, and cracker crumbs. 

  5. Add a dash of each seasoning, around 2-3 tsp of each.

  6. Heat pan to medium low and drizzle with olive oil. 

  7. Make patties out of mixture set on pan and cook one side for around 6 minutes. Be sure to cook through as you brown the side that is down. This is where it is important to have the heat of the stove at the right level. 

  8. You want to stay away from flipping the patties too much or they will start to fall to pieces. 

  9. Once both sides are browned transfer to bun. 

  10. We sautéed mushrooms in Greek seasoning, melted a bit of Jalapeño havarti cheese, added some greens, and served on a brioche bun. 

    Enjoy!
