Vegetarian Burger Recipes

Ingredients for Basic Black Bean Burgers Recipe (makes 4-5)

• ½ cup whole old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 medium white onion chopped into 6 chunks
• 1 can black beans rinsed and drained (or about 2 cups cooked black beans)
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• salt and pepper to taste

Ingredients for Red Kidney Bean Burger Recipe (makes 4-5)

• ¾ cup cornmeal
• 1 medium red onion chopped into 6 chunks
• 1 carrot roughly chopped
• 1 small bell pepper (any color works fine)
• ½ jalapeno pepper
• 1 can kidney beans rinsed and drained (or about 2 cups cooked kidney beans)
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder (or 2 cloves fresh)
• salt and pepper to taste

Directions for Both

Layer ingredients in a food processor (if you have a small one like I do then break batch up into thirds to make sure everything gets processed evenly)
Pulse generously for several minutes, every so often stopping to push whole ingredients down near the blade with a spoon
Once your all ingredients are mixed cohesively and firm but smooth (like the consistency of mashed potatoes) put in a bowl and place in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour
After your bean mush has cooled it will have set and firmed up a bit
You can now manipulate the mush (for lack of a better word) into patties
Place patties onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper
Bake in over set to 425° for 15 minutes on each side
