I love me a veggie burger. I love topping these black bean patties with my citrus salsa. These little guys are perfect for winter, when citrus is in season.
Patties before they are cooked
Bean Patties with Citrus Salsa
What You Need:
can of black beans, rinsed really well
1/2 cup cooked brown rice
1/3 cup of parsley, chopped
1/4 red onion, chopped
1/3 cup pumpkin seeds, chopped
1/4 cup breadcrumbs
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon oregano
salt and pepper
olive oil
What To Do:
1. Combine everything except the oil in a bowl, use your hands to mash the beans up a bit, not completely though
2. Make the patties 1″ thick, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes prior to cooking. I like to make them small so they don’t fall apart when I flip them.
3. Heat up olive oil in a pan and cook patties until golden brown about 4 minutes each side. I like to put them on paper towels after cooking.
