I love Garden Burgers, but they tend to be a bit pricey AND contain items that are not so good for a BOP diet (read the ingredient list and sometimes you have no idea what goes into the burger you are eating!). Therefore, I did a little searching for a recipe for an equally tasty meat-free "burger" and this is what I found (I did some minor tweaking). This recipe is quick, easy, filling, very healthy and best of all it doesn't contain BOP, vinegar, citric acid or benzoates! I will definitely be making these burgers again- yummy!
Servings: 8
Ingredients:
3 (16 ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained
1 1/2 cups uncooked oats
1 medium onion, diced
2 sweet peppers
1/2 cup chopped spinach
2 large eggs beaten
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cornmeal
vegetable oil to saute burgers in
8 hamburger buns
Directions:
1 Coarsely mash the beans with a fork or potato masher.
2 Mix together the mashed beans, oats, and next 5 ingredients.
3 Shape mixture into 8 patties.
4 Mix together the flour and cornmeal; dredge patties in flour mixture.
5 Let the oil get hot in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat; cook the patties for 5 minutes on each side or until lightly browned; drain on paper towels.
6 Serve on toasted buns.
