Seasoned with cilantro and cumin, bean patties make a tempting alternative to beef burgers. Jazz them up with a little salsa or guacamole. —Dorothy Andrews, Grafton, Wisconsin
Ingredients:
1/2 cup canned pinto beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
1/4 cup shredded carrots
1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro
3/4 teaspoon dried minced onion
3/4 teaspoon lime juice
1 small garlic clove, minced
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup soft bread crumbs
2 tablespoons egg substitute
1-1/2 teaspoons cornmeal
1-1/2 teaspoons canola oil
salsa, guacamole and tortilla chips, optional
Directions:
1. In a food processor, combine the first 10 ingredients; cover and pulse until blended. Stir in bread crumbs and egg substitute; refrigerate for 30 minutes.
