Method

Burger Patty Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Ingredients

    Rinse and drain the black beans. In a large mixing bowl, mash the black beans with a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth, leaving some chunks for texture.

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    Add cooked quinoa, oats, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper to the mashed beans. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.

  3. 3

    Form Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into burger patties.

  4. 4

    Cook Patties

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

Assembling the Burger

  1. 5

    Prepare Toppings

    Slice the avocado and tomato. If desired, lightly toast the burger buns in the skillet for 1-2 minutes.

  2. 6

    Assemble Burgers

    Spread vegan mayonnaise on the bottom half of each burger bun. Place a cooked patty on top, followed by fresh spinach, avocado slices, and tomato slices. Top with the other half of the bun.
