Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 16

15 ounce can black beans (, drained and rinsed)
1/2 green bell pepper
1/2 small onion
2 cloves garlic (, peeled)
1 large egg* (, beaten)
2/3 cup whole wheat breadcrumbs
1 Tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
salt and freshly ground black pepper (, to taste)
4 hamburger buns

1 cup mayonnaise
2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
1 Tablespoon adobo sauce ((from can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce))
2 teaspoons lime juice
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Mash black beans: Place rinsed and drained black beans in a bowl. If needed, blot them with a paper towel to remove extra moisture. Place in a large bowl and mash well with a fork.
  • Puree Veggies: Place bell pepper, onion and garlic in a food processor and process until finely minced.
  • Strain: Transfer pureed veggie mixture to a fine mesh strainer and use the back of a spoon to press out excess moisture. (If it's too wet, the burger wont hold together as well.)
  • Combine: Add the strained vegetable mixture to the bowl with the black beans. Add the chili powder, cumin and salt and pepper and stir to combine. Add beaten egg and mix. Stir in bread crumbs.
  • Form Patties: scoop mixture into 4 even sized patties, forming them and pressing flat with your hands.
