BAKED BLACK BEAN AND QUINOA BURGERS

BAKED BLACK BEAN AND QUINOA BURGERS
Recipe from Greatist

What you'll need:
1 can black beans (440g)
1/2 cup cooked quinoa (prepared according to package directions)
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

How to make it:
1. Drain and rinse the can of black beans. Make sure your quinoa is fully cooked and on hand.

2. In a medium bowl, combine the beans and cooked quinoa with the remainder of the ingredients.

3. Using your hands or a fork, thoroughly mix the ingredients together, mashing the beans as you go. This should form a paste-like mixture that is easy to form into patties.

4. Divide the mixture into four equal balls, and form each into a patty between 1/4 and 1/2 an inch thick.

5. In a medium saucepan over high eat, cook the patties in 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil for 1 minute on each side, or until lightly browned.

6. Transfer the saucepan to a 200 degrees Celsius oven and bake for 15 minutes.

7. Serve on a whole-grain bun or over fresh greens with your choice of fixings on top. Serves 4.
