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.
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.
