INGREDIENTS
1 cup canned black beans (170g)
1/2 cup cooked quinoa (93g)
1/4 cup rolled oats (20g)
2 large eggs (100g)
1/4 cup diced red bell pepper (38g)
1/4 cup diced red onion (40g)
2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro (8g)
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
Salt and black pepper to taste
PREPARATION
In a large bowl, rinse and drain the black beans, then lightly mash them with a fork, leaving some whole beans for texture.
Add the cooked quinoa, rolled oats, and diced red bell pepper and red onion to the bowl.
Crack in the eggs and mix thoroughly to combine. Stir in the chopped cilantro, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Form the mixture into 3-4 patties, pressing firmly so they hold together.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly spray with cooking spray if needed.
Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and set through.
Serve warm for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, paired with a fresh side salad or your favorite whole grain.
