Tex-Mex Burgers from greenereating.com


I got this recipe from greenereating.com and it really was good! The patties held together nicely so you could even cook them on the outside grill if you wanted.

1 15oz. can cannellini (or great northern) beans, drained and rinsed
1 c. whole wheat bread crumbs
1 4.5 oz. can chopped green chillies
2 green onions, chopped
1 T. egg replacer mixed in 1/4 c. warm water (2 eggs)
1/4 c. cornmeal
lettuce
avocados
salsa
whole wheat buns
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Place the beans in a medium bowl and mash slightly. Stir well.
Add bread crumbs, green chillies, green onions, and egg replacer mixture. Mix well.
Put cornmeal in a shallow bowl.
Form the mixture into 5-6 patties, each about 1/2 inch thick. Dip each side in cornmeal and place on a non-stick baking sheet.
Bake for 20 minutes, 10 minutes on each side.
To serve, place some shredded lettuce on the bottom bun, put the burger on the lettuce, top with guacamole and salsa.
