Vegetarian or not, you'll love this moist, meatless burger. This recipe allows for a lot of room to play. Make it as mild or spicy as you like. Try adding other spices or peppers to make it your own! Sauteed bell peppers add extra sweetness and flavor, chopped jalapeno adds more heat! Serve on toasted hamburger buns with desired toppings.

Ingredients

½ medium yellow onion, roughly chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped, or more to taste
2 (15 ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained, divided
1 large egg
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon hot sauce, or more to taste
½ cup bread crumbs, or more as needed
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil, or as needed

Directions

Pulse onion and garlic in a food processor until finely chopped. Add 1 can black beans, egg, cilantro, parsley, red pepper flakes, chili powder, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce; pulse to combine.
Transfer mixture to a large mixing bowl. Add remaining black beans and bread crumbs. Season with salt and pepper and mix until well combined, adding up to 2 tablespoons bread crumbs if mixture seems too wet.
Divide mixture into 6 portions and form into patties.
Heat oil in a large grill pan over medium-low heat. Place patties on the hot pan and cook until heated through, about 6 minutes a side.

Cook's Note:

If you don't have access to a food processor, just mash beans by hand and mince other items.
