Black Bean-Oat Burger
Ingredients:
2 (15oz.) cans black beans, drained and rinsed
3/4 cup uncooked old-fashioned regular rolled oats
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons chili powder
3 scallions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons canola oil
4 hamburger buns
1 cup salsa
Lettuce
Tomato slices
Red onion slices
Process beans, oats, garlic, soy sauce, and chili powder in a food processor until ingredients begin to come together, about 30 seconds. Transfer bean mixture to a large bowl; stir in scallions. Shape mixture into 4 (3/4 cup) patties. Let patties stand at room temperature 5 minutes, or refrigerate up to 3 hours. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Cook patties in hot oil until browned, about 5 minutes per side. Place 1 patty on each hamburger bun bottom, and top each with 1/4 cup salsa. Add lettuce, tomato slices, and red onion slices, and cover with bun tops.
