Easy Peasy Black Bean Burger Recipe

You have to try!

This is one of my favorite recipes from www.katiehwillcox.com that you have to try! I have to say that I am really proud of myself for this one. Since we stopped eating meat I have been wanting to learn how to make a really good black bean burger but I had this idea in my mind that it must be really difficult to do.  I was wrong! This recipe is a game changer for families wanting to cut out the meat but still partake in the family BBQ's and burger night! The best part is that I have several patties left sitting pretty in the freezer. That makes my life so much easier knowing I can just cook one up in 5 minutes and have a satisfying meal that is effortless. 

I originally got this recipe from Buzzfeed on Pinterest. Here is what you will need!

Ingredients:

  • 2 cans Black beans

  • 2 Carrots

  • 1/2 tsp Coriander

  • 3 Garlic cloves

  • 1 Onion

PREPARATION

Heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a pan. Combine onions, garlic, salt, and pepper and cook until onions are translucent. Add carrots, cumin, coriander, chili powder, and cayenne pepper until carrots are tender. Remove pan from heat. 

In a bowl, mash the beans and then add the contents of the pan along with the soy sauce and quick oats. Mix and form four patties. Place in freezer for 30 minutes to set. Cook patties on a pan coated in cooking spray over medium heat, flipping halfway. 

Use patties to create your dream veggie burger.
