INGREDIENTS
1 cup Black Beans (canned, drained)
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 large Egg
1/4 cup Egg Whites
2 tablespoons Rolled Oats
1/4 cup Red Bell Pepper, finely chopped
1/4 cup Onion, finely chopped
1 Garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 Lettuce Leaves
Spices (Cumin & Chili Powder) to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse and drain the black beans. Place them in a bowl and lightly mash, leaving some whole for texture.
In a separate bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, finely chopped red bell pepper, onion, and minced garlic.
Add the mashed black beans, rolled oats, whole egg, and egg whites along with a pinch of cumin and chili powder. Mix well to combine all ingredients.
Form the mixture into a patty shape, ensuring it’s compact.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, gently place the patty into the skillet.
Cook the patty for about 4-5 minutes on each side until a crispy, golden-brown crust forms.
Prepare the lettuce leaves by washing and drying them. Use them as a wrap to hold the crispy burger.
Place the cooked patty into the lettuce leaves, add extra spices if desired, and serve immediately.
