Patty Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bean Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed black beans and cooked quinoa. Stir until well mixed.

  2. 2

    Add Vegetables and Spices

    Add the chopped red onion, minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to the bean mixture. Mix until all ingredients are combined.

  3. 3

    Incorporate Breadcrumbs

    Gradually add the breadcrumbs to the mixture, stirring until the mixture holds together well. If it's too wet, add more breadcrumbs.

    Form Patties

    Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty.

  5. 5

    Cook the Patties

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until golden brown.

    Mix the Aioli

    In a small bowl, combine vegan mayonnaise, Sriracha sauce, lemon juice, garlic powder, and salt. Whisk until smooth.

Assembly

    Prepare the Buns

    Toast the whole grain burger buns lightly if desired.

  2. 8

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by a burger patty, a few slices of avocado, and a slice of tomato. Drizzle with spicy aioli and top with the other half of the bun.
