Ingredients
-1 cup sweet corn -1 cup black beans, divided -1/2 (4 oz.) can green chiles -1/4 sweet potato, cubed and microwaved for 2 minutes -2 tbsp chopped green onions -1 heaping teaspoon tomato paste -juice of 1/2 lime -1 tsp cumin -1/4 tsp black pepper -1/4 tsp garlic salt
Directions
-Add half of the black beans (reserving other half for later) and all other ingredients to a food processor. Pulse until ingredients are incorporated but chunky. Do not process until smooth, this will keep the burger from sticking together.
-Mash the other half of the black beans, then combine with the processed mixture. *I chose to mash part of the beans so that they would help the mixture stick together better. Mashed beans work better as a binder than fully processed beans.
-Form mixture into two patties and cook over medium heat in pan sprayed with non-stick spray.
-Cook for 2-3 minutes each side, flipping carefully.
