Black Bean Veggie Burgers

Yields 7 patties

Ingredients:

2½ cups Black Beans, drained and rinsed (9332313)

2 cups Cooked Short Grain Brown Rice (2981926)

1t Sea Salt (7425821)

¼ cup Yellow Onion, minced (5034228)

3 T Ketchup (190009)

3 T Chili Powder (2449346)

1 tsp Dry Oregano (9449604)

1tsp Garlic, minced (1015577)

2½ tsp Ground Cumin (760629)

1/3 cup Nutritional Yeast (155606)

1 cup Rolled Oats (3731668)

1 Jalapeño (4011839)

Method:

In a large mixing bowl crush cooked black beans by hand then add cumin, chili powder, sea salt and nutritional yeast. In a small sauté pan, quickly cook onion, garlic and jalapenos. Add cooked mixture to black beans along with brown rice, oregano and ketchup. Adjust the mixture by adding rolled oats in order to reach your desired consistency (I lean towards a moist mixture to keep a nice texture in the patty). Form mixture into 7 medium sized patties and cook with olive oil on a flat top griddle, sauté pan or grill.
