Black Bean Burgers






Makes 5-6 patties

Ingredients:
2 x 14 oz. cans of black beans
1 egg
1/4 cup of panko (or plain breadcrumbs)
2 tsp cumin
1 tsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp cayenne
1/4 cup fresh cilantro
3 Tbsp oil

Directions:
1. Rinse the black beans in a colander.
2. Dump one can of beans, panko, cumin, oregano, cayenne and the egg into a blender or food processor. Pulse it together until it forms a paste.
3. Empty the contents into a bowl. Stir in the other can of beans and the cilantro. Use your hands to form into patties.
4. Heat oil in a pan to medium then gently place your patties in. Cook for 5 minutes a side. Once you’re close to 5 minutes on the first side, start sliding a thin, flexible spatula under to loosen them away from the pan. Serve on a bun with toppings, like tomato, avocado, lettuce, salsa, spicy mayo.
