  • 2 cans of black beans

Method

  1. Rinse the beans then transfer to bowl and mashed until about 3/4 of beans smashed. I use a potato masher thing.
  2. Blend green onions, cilantro, chopped red pepper, cumin and salt.
  3. Once blended pretty well, add egg and oats then blend again.
  4. Pour oats/veggie mixture into beans and stir to combine.
  5. Oil hands and make patties on wax lined cookie sheet. Usually makes approx 10 bean burgers.
  6. Freeze at least for an hour if cooking that night. If prepping to just have in freezer, freeze over night on cookie sheets with wax paper then transfer to gallon storage bags.
  7. When cooking, oil pan and cook approx 7 min each side. Melt some cheese on the 2nd side.
  8. Serve with sweet potato fries seasoned with paprika and salt and Avos and sriracha mayo.
