Okay this is my first attempt at a homemade veggie burger. And it's the shit!!!
Recipe used: Black Bean-Corn Burger. Recipe by Marge Perry from Self Magazine.
Black Bean-Corn Burger
1 can (15 ounce) low-sodium black beans, rinsed and drained
3/4 cup corn, thawed if frozen
1/2 red bell pepper, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1/4 cup whole-wheat breadcrumbs
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
3 large egg whites, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon chopped chipotle chile in adobo
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 Tablespoons flour
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon olive oil, divided
8 cups baby spinach
Pinch of nutmeg
In a bowl, combine beans, corn, bell pepper, breadcrumbs, cilantro, egg whites, chipotle, oregano, cumin and flour. Form bean mixture into four 3/4-inch-thick patties. In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Cook patties, turning once, until browned, 5 minutes per side; remove from pan. In same skillet, sauté spinach in remaining 1 teaspoon oil over medium-high heat until wilted, 3 minutes; season with nutmeg and salt and freshly ground black pepper. Place 1/4 of cooked spinach on bottom of each bun, then 1 burger and cheese (if you like). Top with other bun half.
