to One bite of this spicy black bean burger with spicy chipotle mayo and creamy avocado and you won't miss the meat! Yes, these were good enough to please even the adult carnivore's in my home (a bit too spicy for my kids).
to to best if frozen so plan to make them ahead and cook as needed. You can even double the batch to keep them on hand whenever you need them.
Vegetarian, High in Fiber, and Gluten Free if using GF oats (excluding the bun). I highly recommend making them exactly as written, don't change a thing!

For the Black Bean Burgers:
16 16 can 16 oz can black beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 1/2 2 red bell pepper, cut into 2 inch pieces
1/2 1/2 1/2 cup chopped scallions
3 3 3 tbsp chopped cilantro
3 3 3 cloves garlic, peeled
1 1 1 jumbo egg
1 1 1 tbsp cumin
1/4 to 1/2 1/4 to 1/2 1/2 tsp kosher salt
1 1 1 tsp hot sauce
1/2 1/2 1/2 cup quick oats (use gf oats for gluten free)
4 4 100 whole wheat 100 calorie buns (Martin's)*
1 1 1 small hass avocado, sliced thin

Steps:

Combine mayonnaise and chipotle, set aside. Dry the beans well after washing, extra moisture keep the burgers from sticking. In a medium bowl, mash beans with a fork until thick and pasty. In a food processor, finely chop bell pepper, cilantro, onion, and garlic, then add oats, then eggs and spices. Then stir into mashed beans. Divide mixture into four patties (using slightly oiled hands helps) and place them onto a flat surface covered with wax paper. (If it's too wet, chill the mixture 30 minutes in the refrigerator or add another tablespoon of oats) Freeze at least 2 hours before cooking or keep frozen until ready to cook. Heat a lightly sprayed skillet to medium heat and cook frozen burgers about 7 minutes on each side. If grilling, preheat grill over medium heat, and lightly oil a sheet of aluminum foil; grill 7-8 minutes on each side or you can bake in the oven at 375° on a lightly oiled baking sheet. *Nutritional value will vary slightly depending on buns. Look for low calorie whole wheat buns. For gluten free buns look for Udi's or Three Baker's brand. Points will increase.
