Black Bean Burgers

Something different to try

Ingredients-

  • 2 (15-ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained, divided
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup salsa - I use medium--it depends on your brand on how much to use, if it is a watery brand use less or add more bread crumbs.
  • Salt and fresh ground black pepper
  • 4 hamburger rolls

Optional Toppings:

  • 1 tomato, sliced
  • Sliced Avocado

Directions

Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-low heat.

In a food processor, pulse 1 can black beans, salsa, egg, and pulse to combine.

Transfer mixture to a large mixing bowl, add the remaining can of black beans and the bread crumbs. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and mix until well combined.

Divide mixture into 4 portions and form into patties. Place on hot oiled grill over medium-low heat and cook about 6 minutes a side or until heated through. Toast hamburger buns on a grill. Place a burger on the bottom of each bun. Cover the burgers with the top of the bun and serve.
