Black Bean Patty Recipe
Serving: 5 patties

Ingredients:

1 can black beans, drained, rinsed, and dried (I like to gather mine in a tea towel and wring out any excess water).
½ tbsp extra virgin olive oil
¼ of a finely chopped bell pepper
½ cup finely chopped yellow onion
2 garlic cloves, minced (½ tbsp minced garlic)
¾ teaspoons ground cumin
½ teaspoon chili powder
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
¼ cup breadcrumbs
¼ cup goat cheese
1 large egg
½ tbsp Worcestershire sauce
pinch salt + pepper

Instructions:

Sauté olive oil, chopped pepper, onion, and garlic over medium heat until the peppers are softened, and the onion is translucent. Then gently blot some of the moisture out with a paper towel.
Next, place all your ingredients in a food processor and pulse everything together (I left mine a little chunky).
Form into patties (about 1/3 cup each) and place on a plate or baking dish lined with parchment paper and freeze for 1 hour.
For baking, heat a tsp of olive oil in a medium pan, fry the patty for 6-7 mins on each side and enjoy!

*Can freeze or store in the fridge for up to a week.

Greek Yogurt Burger Sauce

2 tsp mustard
¼ cup chopped dill pickles
¼ cup chopped white onion
½ tsp pickle juice
1 tsp paprika
½ tsp garlic powder

Mix all together and enjoy!
