Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (15 oz) Black beans, drained and rinsed
- 0.5 cup Brown rice, cooked
- 1 medium Carrot, grated
- 0.5 cup Red bell pepper, finely chopped
- 0.25 cup Onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 0.5 cup Rolled oats
- 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Cumin, ground
- 0.5 teaspoon Coriander, ground
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 pieces Whole-grain burger buns
- 4 leaves Leafy lettuce
- 1 medium Tomato, sliced
- 1 medium Avocado, sliced
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, mash the black beans with a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth, leaving some chunks for texture.
Add the cooked brown rice, grated carrot, chopped red bell pepper, chopped onion, minced garlic, and rolled oats to the bowl with the beans. Mix until well combined.
Stir in the ground flaxseed, soy sauce, ground cumin, ground coriander, smoked paprika, and black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each into a patty using your hands. Ensure each patty is about 1/2-inch thick.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. If needed, lightly spray with cooking oil to prevent sticking.
Cook each patty for about 7 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Toast the whole-grain burger buns in the same skillet for 1-2 minutes until lightly browned.
Assemble each burger by placing a leafy lettuce leaf on the bottom half of the toasted bun, followed by a plant-based patty.
Top with slices of tomato and avocado, then cover with the top half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Low Fat Garden Ultimate Plant-Based Burger!
