1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
15 oz can low sodium black beans, rinsed & drained
1 cup bread crumbs
1/2 cup rolled oats
4 Tablespoons ketchup
2 tsp. cumin
2 tsp. oregano
1/2 cup water
non-stick cooking spray
In a pan, saute onion over medium-high heat until just starting to brown. Add a little water to prevent sticking/burning. Add garlic and saute for 1 minute.
Mash the beans and add sauteed vegetables and remaining ingredients. Press everything together and form 4 patties.
Spray skillet with non stick spray and brown burgers over medium heat until slightly browned on both sides (about 3 min. per side).
Serve on bed of lettuce, lettuce wrap or whole wheat buns.
NOTE: You can also make burger with raw diced onions and skip the garlic.
