Method

Burger Patty Preparation

1

Cook Quinoa

Rinse 1 cup of quinoa under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until the quinoa is fluffy and the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it cool.

2

Prepare Black Beans

In a mixing bowl, mash 1 cup of cooked black beans with a fork or a potato masher until mostly smooth, leaving some chunks for texture.

3

Combine Ingredients

In the bowl with the mashed black beans, add the cooked quinoa, grated carrot, chopped onion, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, pepper, and the egg. Mix everything together until well combined.

4

Form Patties

Add the bread crumbs to the mixture to help bind the ingredients. Divide the mixture into two equal parts and form each part into a patty shape.

5

Cook Patties

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with olive oil or cooking spray. Cook each patty for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and heated through.

Assembly

6

Prepare Buns

While the patties are cooking, slice the whole grain burger buns in half and toast them lightly if desired.

7

Assemble Burgers

Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Add a cooked veggie patty on top, followed by sliced tomatoes and avocados. Drizzle ketchup and mustard on top before placing the top half of the bun.

8

Serve

Serve the assembled veggie burgers immediately with your choice of side items.
