Two-Bean Burger
with Avocado-Cilantro Mayonnaise
INGREDIENTS:
- Mayonnaise:
- 1/2 ripe medium avocado, peeled and pitted
- 2 Tbsp (olive oil) mayonnaise
- The juice of 1/2 of a lime, about 1 tablespoon juice
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
- Burgers:
- 1 can (15 oz) black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1/2 of (15 oz) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 (4oz) can chopped green chiles
- 1/2 cup quick-cooking oats
- 1 large egg white
- 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Cooking spray
- 4 large Kaiser or whole wheat buns, split and toasted 4
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
- 4 tomato slices
- 4 lime wedges (optional)
DIRECTIONS:
Place mayonnaise ingredients in a blender, secure lid, and puree until smooth.
Place rinsed beans in a large mixing bowl. Using a meat mallet or large fork, smash beans to a coarse texture. Add chiles, oats, egg white, rosemary, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Mix well and shape into four patties. Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Add patties and cook 4 minutes on each side or until they begin to lightly brown. The patties will be fragile, so be sure to turn them gently.
To assemble, spoon 1 Tbsp mayonnaise mixture on each bun half. Top each bottom bun with burger, onion, and a tomato slice. Place bun tops over each. Serve with lime wedges. If desired, omit the buns and serve the patties on the lettuce leaf, tomato slice, and onion. Spoon the mayonnaise mixture on top of the patties and serve with lime wedges.
