- Add the remaining ingredients (minus the water) and process until a dough begins to form. Add water while the food processor is running and the dough comes together. You want to mixture to be sticky, not runny or dry. Place the bowl in the refrigerator and let cool for 15 minutes.

- Place your patties on a parchment paper lined baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Flip half way through and finish with a quick 2 - 3 minute broil to get the patties nice and browned.

EASY VEGAN QUINOA & WHITE BEAN BURGERS (GLUTEN-FREE!)
These easy vegan quinoa burgers come together quickly and easily using mostly pantry staples! The burgers are incredibly versatile-you can serve them over greens, on buns, or stuffed into pita bread. We love to slather them with Herbed Aioli (use vegan mayo for a vegan version) or hummus, and we top them with cucumbers, avocado, and greens. However they're also delicious with yogurt, feta, sliced tomatoes, or the classic burger fixings... the sky's the limit! You can either cook the quinoa as indicated below or use 2 cups of leftover cooked quinoa.

Steps:
- In a small pot with a lid, combine the quinoa, 1 cup of water, and a pinch of salt. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook until the quinoa has absorbed the water, about 15 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and let sit, covered, for 5-10 minutes to steam. Do Ahead: The quinoa can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
- In a food processor with the blade running, add the garlic cloves and finely chop. Add the white beans, scallions, cilantro, lemon zest and cumin. Season with salt and pepper. Process until the mixture forms a coarse puree, scraping down the sides. Add the quinoa; pulse to combine until a coarse paste forms. Transfer to a bowl, and stir in the peas and breadcrumbs. Form the mixture into 6 patties, and place them on a piece of wax or parchment paper. Do Ahead: The uncooked burgers can be covered and refrigerated for up to 1 day before cooking.
- Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the burgers and cook until golden brown on the bottom, about 4-5 minutes. Flip the burgers, add the remaining tablespoon of oil and cook until golden on the other side.
- Transfer the burgers to buns, pita bread or greens, and serve warm with the toppings of your choice.
Tips:
- For the best texture, use a combination of cooked quinoa and rolled oats. This will give your burgers a slightly crispy exterior and a tender, fluffy interior.
- Be sure to drain the quinoa thoroughly before adding it to the food processor. This will help to prevent your burgers from becoming too mushy.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can mash the quinoa, oats, and vegetables together with a fork. However, the texture of your burgers will be less uniform.
- Feel free to experiment with different vegetables in your burgers. Some other good options include carrots, celery, zucchini, and spinach.
- To make your burgers even more flavorful, try adding some herbs or spices to the mixture. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cumin.
- If you're short on time, you can make these burgers ahead of time and freeze them. Simply cook the burgers according to the recipe, then let them cool completely. Place the burgers in a single layer in a freezer-safe container and freeze for up to 2 months. When you're ready to eat, thaw the burgers overnight in the refrigerator or at room temperature for 30 minutes.
