Black Bean Burger
Deliciously seasoned, perfect black bean burgers piled high with all the burger fixins. Whether you're vegan, vegetarian or a meat eater, you will LOVE this recipe.I really think ANYONE would like this recipe. They make the perfect lunch by the pool for this Memorial Day Weekend and are a great option to change up the typical barbecue fair. I love these black bean burgers because you can actually use any bean you have in your pantry, so they are super easy to whip together. Kidney, chickpeas or pinto beans will taste just as good. Walnuts and breadcrumbs help create the filling and give these burgers a great texture. If you need a break from meat, want something a little lighter or just don't have any ground beef on hand, look no further for your new favorite black bean burger recipe!

15 oz. can of black beans, drained and rinsed (or any bean)
1/2 cup walnuts
1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs (or regular )
1 egg, beaten

2-3 tbsp BBQ sauce
4 hamburger buns
4 slices of preferred cheese

Add the beans into a food processor and pulse until you create a course texture. Remove from the food processor and add to a bowl. Add the walnuts to the food processor and pulse to make a fine crumb. Add the walnuts to the beans.
Add the breadcrumbs, egg, seasonings and BBQ sauce to the beans and walnuts. Mix together until well combined.
Form four patties and place on a baking sheet lined with plastic wrap. Rest in the fridge for 20-30 minutes.
Heat olive oil over medium heat in a large saucepan. Cook the burgers for 3-4 minutes per side. Add the cheese and cover with a lid to allow the cheese to melt. Remove from the pan and build burgers.
