Making veggie burgers from scratch takes more time than heating up a frozen patty, but the end result can be delicious!

Ingredients

  • Burger Ingredients1/2 cup diced onion (can use red onion)
  • 1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs (can use Panko breadcrumbs if you like lighter and lower-calorie options)
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 2 Tbs minced seeded jalapeño pepper
  • 2 Tbs reduced-fat sour cream
  • 1 tsp hot pepper sauce
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 15-ounce can pinto beans, drained
  • 1 (8 3/4-ounce) can no salt-added whole-kernel corn, drained
  • Toppings4 Tbs ketchup or barbecue sauce (if you use bbq sauce, make sure you get one that’s super low in sugar)
  • 1/4 cup red onion slices
  • 1 roma tomato slices
  • 1/4 cup baby spinach leaves
  • 4 whole wheat or sprouted wheat hamburger buns – make sure you get buns with less than 200 calories per bun, and at least 4g fiber

Directions

  • Burger IngredientsTo prepare burgers, combine the first nine ingredients in a food processor (this saves on cutting time if you have a good food processor). Transfer to a large bowl, and mix in the egg.
  • Put pinto beans and corn in a food processor, and then add to the mixture in the bowl. Alternatively, you can add the pinto beans and corn to the bowl and partially mash with a fork or potato masher.
  • Divide bean mixture into four equal portions, shaping each portion into a 3 1/2-inch patty, and refrigerate for 10 minutes. Heat canola oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add patties to pan, and cook 5 to 10 minutes on each side or until thoroughly heated through.
  • ToppingsPlace patties on bottom halves of buns; top each patty with 1 to 2 Tbsp ketchup or barbecue sauce, red onion slices, Roma tomatoes, baby spinach leaves, and top half of bun.
