Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 cups cooked black beans; 1/4 cup minced onion; 1/4 cup rolled oats (may sub barley oats); 1/4 cup salsa; 1 large egg, beaten; 2 tablespoons potato flakes (I used cheese flavor); 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs; 1/4 cup crushed Fritos corn chips; 1/2 cup frozen corn, thawed; 1/4 teaspoon cumin; 1/2 teaspoon salt

Servings: persons

2 cups cooked black beans
1/4 cup minced onion
1/4 cup rolled oats (may sub barley oats)
1/4 cup salsa
1 large egg, beaten
2 tablespoons potato flakes (I used cheese flavor)
1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup crushed Fritos corn chips
1/2 cup frozen corn, thawed
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt

1
Mash beans with the back of a fork to desired consistency (I like to leave some chunks, but the more chunks the more likely they are to fall apart after cooking).
2
Add in the remaining ingredients and stir well.
3
Form into 6 burgers, separate them with wax paper, and then place in the fridge to cool completely before trying to cook (they will stay together better this way).
4
Turn frying pan to med-high (closer to medium than to high) and add 1 T oil. Cook each burger for about 2-3 minutes on each side (turning ONLY once, otherwise you increase the risk of them falling apart).
5
NOTE: Feel free to bake these on a greased cookie sheet at 350 degrees for approximately 7 minutes per side or until heated through.
6
Serve on a bun with a slice of tomato and some guacamole.
