Chipotle Quinoa Black Bean Burgers - Oh My!

My burger had sour cream, Rotel tomatoes, lettuce, sliced onions and melted cheddar cheese on an English muffin along with a salad on the side with pickled vegetables. It was delicious! 

 




1 1/2 C Cooked Quinoa

15 Oz Can Black Beans (drained and rinsed)

1/4 C Breadcrumbs 

1 Egg

1/2 Tsp Onion Powder

1/2 Tsp Garlic Powder

1/2 Tsp Taco Seasoning

1/2 Tsp Ground Cumin

Chipotle Sauce, to taste (I used about 3 Tsp)

Oil for frying (4 Tbs)

Place the cooked quinoa and black beans in a food processor. Process mixture until well combined. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well. With lightly oiled hands form into four patties. Pre-heat a large skillet with the oil. Fry patties for five minutes on each side. Serve on a bun with your favorite toppings. This recipe makes 4 large patties. 

Number One Husband had mayo, sliced onions, lettuce and cheddar cheese on his burger.

These healthy burgers were fast and easy to put together and extremely flavorful. With a few tweaks, they can easily be turned into gluten free and or vegan burgers. I have decided to change up the spices and make breakfast sausage next time.

Considering the cost of meat these days, I am very excited about this recipe's potential for replacing some of the meat that we consume not to mention the health benefits. 

Enjoy,

Mrs. Smith
