In a small bowl, mash the black beans with a fork until mostly smooth but with some texture remaining.
Stir in the egg whites, protein powder, onion powder, cumin, garlic powder, and half the salt. Mix until a thick dough forms, then divide and shape into 2 even patties.
Coat a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and set over medium heat. Add the patties and cook for 4 minutes. Flip and cook for 4 minutes more until browned and firm. Done when browned and firm, 160°F.
While the patties cook, toss the avocado, red onion, lime juice, cilantro, and remaining salt together in a small bowl. Serve the patties with the salad on the side.
