Ingredients

    1 can black beans, drained & rinsed
    1 jalapeno pepper, diced
    1/2 bell pepper, diced
    1/2 sm. onion, diced
    1 egg, slightly beaten

Tips

I rarely go through the food processing part of this recipe. I find that simply mashing up the black beans is usually enough to hold everything together.

Add a slice of smoked cheese to give this recipe and added punch!


Directions


1.Blend black beans and jalapeno pepper in a food processor until the beans are completely pureed; transfer to a large mixing bowl.

2.Mix breadcrumbs, red bell pepper, onion, eggs, cumin, chili powder, garlic, liquid smoke flavoring, and ranch dressing mix into the black bean mixture until evenly combined.

3.Chill mixture in freezer until firm enough to shape into patties, about 1 hour.

4.Divide mixture into 4 portions; shape into patties.

5.Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; cook burgers in hot oil until cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.
