Black Bean Burgers

I thought long and hard about an entry I wanted to make for a recipe contest I saw on Food Network. I Googled, I asked coworkers and I pursued the grocery store.

After stopping at the grocery store on my way home and picking up 3 free bottles of Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce and all the ingredients for black bean burgers I was ready to go. I spent 20 minutes trying to figure out the     &$%*#&@^ flip cam so you could see me and the ingredients   I finally somewhat figured it out and got cooking.

Ingredients

10 ounces of mushrooms, I used portobello, cremini, oyster and shitake

1 can black beans, rinsed and drained

1 jalapeno

3 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

1 tsp ancho chili Powder

1 tsp cumin

3/4 cup Panko bread crumbs

1 egg

Salt/Pepper

Whole Wheat Buns

Corn Salsa

Directions

• Add beans, chopped mushrooms, jalapeno, Worcestershire, chili powder, cumin and salt/pepper until combined.
• Add breadcrumbs and eggs and process
• Form 4-5 patties and cook for 5 minutes on each side over medium high heat.
• Top with a bit of corn salsa

I really liked this burger, very filling and it would also make a good veggies dip since none of the ingredients need to be cooked.
