Veggie Burger Ingredients

Fries Ingredients

Method

Veggie Burger Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Black Beans

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

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    Add oats, chopped bell pepper, chopped onion, minced garlic, cumin powder, salt, and black pepper to the mashed black beans. Mix until all ingredients are well combined.

  3. 3

    Form Patties

    With your hands, form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties. If the mixture is too wet, add more oats until the desired consistency is reached.

  4. 4

    Cook the Patties

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

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger buns if desired. Place a lettuce leaf on each bun, add the veggie patty, top with tomato slices and avocado slices. Cover with the top half of the bun.

Fries Directions

  1. 6

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  2. 7

    Prepare the Fries

    In a mixing bowl, toss the cut potatoes with olive oil, salt, and paprika until evenly coated.

  3. 8

    Bake the Fries

    Spread the fries in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden.
