INGREDIENTS
3 cups canned black beans (rinsed)
2 cups cooked quinoa
400 grams extra-firm tofu
5 large eggs
1/2 cup whole wheat breadcrumbs
1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
1/2 medium red onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
Olive oil spray
PREPARATION
In a large bowl, mash the black beans with a fork, leaving some texture.
Crumble the extra-firm tofu and add it to the beans along with the cooked quinoa.
Chop the red bell pepper and dice the red onion; add them to the mixture along with the minced garlic.
Beat the eggs in a small bowl, then pour into the bean mixture.
Sprinkle in the whole wheat breadcrumbs, and season with salt, pepper, cumin, and chili powder to taste.
Mix all ingredients thoroughly until well combined. If the mixture feels too wet, add a little extra breadcrumbs.
Form the mixture into 4 equally sized patties.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with olive oil spray.
Cook each patty for about 4-5 minutes per side, until they are crisp on the outside and heated through.
Serve warm on their own or with your favorite fresh salad, avocado slices, or whole grain bun.
