Crispy Black Bean Quinoa Burger Lettuce Wrap
Enjoy a vibrant, crisp wrap featuring a savory black bean and quinoa patty, spiked with diced red bell pepper and aromatic garlic. This nutritious patty, held together with egg whites and rolled oats, offers a delightful balance of textures and flavors, all neatly tucked into refreshing lettuce leaves for a satisfying, light meal.
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup canned black beans (drained)
1/2 cup cooked quinoa
2 tbsp rolled oats
5 egg whites
1/4 cup diced red bell pepper
2 tbsp diced onion
1 garlic clove, minced
2 large romaine lettuce leaves
Spices: cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
In a medium bowl, mash the black beans until mostly smooth, leaving a few chunks for texture.
Stir in the cooked quinoa, rolled oats, diced red bell pepper, diced onion, and minced garlic.
Add the egg whites and season with cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Form the mixture into patties, ensuring they are compact. If the mixture feels too loose, let it rest for 5 minutes so the oats can absorb the moisture.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side until they are crispy and golden brown.
Prepare the lettuce wrap by washing and drying the romaine leaves.
Place a crispy patty into each lettuce leaf and serve immediately, enjoying the fresh crunch of the lettuce with the hearty patty.
