Ingredients

For the Black Bean Veggie Burger

  • 2 cans 15-ounces Black Beans rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa
  • ½ cup pulvarized tortilla chips
  • ½ cup thinly sliced green onions
  • cup shredded zucchini squeezing to remove excess liquid after shredding
  • ¼ cup shredded yellow onion
  • 1 egg whisked
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon chipotle chile powder

For the Burgers

  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • Brioche Buns
  • Sliced Roasted Red Peppers
  • Lettuce
  • Crumbled Feta
  • Sliced Red Onions

Instructions

  • In a food processor, combine the rinsed and drained black beans, quinoa, tortilla chips, green onions, zucchini, onion, egg, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, cumin and chile powder. Pulse for about 30 seconds until uniform in consistency. Turn the contents of the food processor into a bowl. Divide the mixture into 6 even segments and form into 6 patties.
  • Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Once hot, add 3 of the patties and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side until fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and repeat the process with the remaining olive oil and patties.
  • Once all the veggie burgers are cooked, assemble with butter brioche buns and assorted toppings. Serve immediately.

Notes

Add all your favorite toppings - especially guacamole! Just remember to check ingredients on the buns if you are keeping vegan.
