Ingredients;
1 can of drained black beans
1 cup of cooked brown rice
3 cloves of crushed garlic
1 diced onion
¼ cup of chopped, fresh cilantro (or, curly parsley)
2 eggs
1 tsp Chili powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Use a fork to mash half of the beans, leaving the other half un-mashed it makes for good texture. (In the stores brands they add in fresh corn blended on a quick pulse (just cut, not all) add in if desired?)
Stir in all remaining ingredients. Form into four patties. Either bake them in the oven at 375 degrees for 25 minutes or place in a pan lightly coated with olive oil. Only turn once when they are lightly brown on the edges. Be careful when you are turning them because vegetarian burgers do have a tendency to fall apart easily. ( One tsp flour or less or, corn starch can help if added while forming the patty.)
Cook on each side 4-5 minutes on medium heat in oven or on top of the stove in olive oil. These are cooked in olive oil which is most delightful with vegetables..
Serve with salsa red onion, lettuce, or fresh avocado. Place on a 100% whole wheat bun or just eat plain with lots of goodies piled on top!
