- 1/2 C. (60g) Onion (finely diced)
- 1 large (42g) Jalapeño (seeded and finely diced)
- 1t. Oil
- 1/2 t. Cumin
- 1 C. (86g) Carrot (finely shredded)
- 1 clove (15g) Garlic (minced) or 1 heaping T.
- 1 C. (173g) Quinoa (cooked)
- 1 15oz. (432g) Can Black Beans (drained & rinsed)
- 2T. (23g) Roasted Pepita seeds (minced) or Sunflower seeds
- 1T. (5ml) Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 t. Salt
- 1/4 C. (15g) Bread Crumbs
- *OPTIONAL*
- 1/4 C. (30g) Cheddar cheese (grated)
Drain and rinse your Black beans and set aside.
In a bowl, mash your Black beans loosely. (You can still have some whole beans)
Now add your Quinoa and sautéed vegetables and mix well.
Add the rest of your ingredients....seeds, Worcestershire, salt, breadcrumbs and cheese (optional)
Stir it up well. You'll notice it becomes like a stiff dough.
Form into approximately Five 3/4 C. (141g) patties.
On medium heat, fry your patties for about 4 to 5 minutes and......
Flip! (Carefully, these have a softer texture than meat)
Fry another 4 to 5 minutes until heated through and golden brown.
Serve on your favorite bun with condiments or on a bed of lettuce.
These are DELICIOUS! Enjoy!
