Veggie Burger
July 15, 2023
Ingredients
1 can pinto or black beans (other varieties also work)
3 tbsp tomato paste or ketchup
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder, optional
1/4 tsp onion powder
2 tbsp flour of choice or oat bran
1/2 cup cooked diced vegetables of choice
Directions
These burgers can be baked, grilled, or fried, and feel free to use whatever veggies you have on hand. You can also change up the flavor by adding different spices, such as paprika, cumin, or curry powder.
- To make the veggie burgers, first drain, rinse, and mash the beans either by hand or in a food processor, depending on desired burger texture.
- Stir in all other ingredients, and form patties. (Add more flour if too soft to form patties.) Either pan fry–flipping halfway through cooking–or place on a parchment-lined pan and bake at 350 F for 10 minutes.
- Flip, then bake an additional 10 minutes or until desired texture is reached. (You can also grill the burgers. Grilling instructions are listed earlier in this post.)
Leftovers can be refrigerated or frozen in meal prep containers for a later day.
