Burger Patty

Toppings

Method

Burger Patty Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Black Beans

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

  2. 2

    Mix in Other Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about 1 inch thick.

  4. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Heat the 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 the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the whole wheat burger buns on a separate skillet or in a toaster.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by a veggie patty, tomato slices, and avocado slices.

  3. 7

    Add Condiments

    Add ketchup and mustard to taste on the top half of the bun, then place it on top of the assembled burger.
