Black Bean Burger

This weekend started my first cooking event without soy. I cook on the weekends and eat it all during the week. Saves so much time and if something is good I don't mind eating it again, and again.

Anyway, here's a recipe for Bean Burgers that I found over at Bush Beans site. It sounded yummy and of course, easy. So I gave it a go. This was my very first attempt at a bean burger. I must say I am impressed and it was quite tasty. I will be making these again.

I decided to take a picture before I added the dressings (tomato, lettuce. . .) I wanted you to see how the burger actually looked. Oh, I didn't put it on a grill. I used my electric skillet and I think it worked just fine.




Bush's Backyard Black Bean Burgers

2 cans (15 ounces each) BUSH'S BEST Black Beans, rinsed and drained (
I used another brand. Sorry Bush's but I found some on sale)
½ cup whole wheat or all-purpose flour
¼ cup yellow cornmeal
½ cup chunky salsa
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon garlic salt
Hamburger buns

Place beans in food processor; process until fairly smooth. Add flour, cornmeal, salsa, cumin and garlic salt. Process until well combined. Spoon mixture into 6 balls on a large plate and refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 4 hours before cooking.

Heat barbecue grill or ridged grill pan over medium heat. Coat grill or pan lightly with oil. Form each ball into a 4-inch patty about ½-inch thick. Place the patties on the grill or in pan and cook until browned and heated through, 4 to 5 minutes per side.

Serve on hamburger buns with your favorite toppings.

ENJOY!
