Black Bean-Quinoa Burger

Follow this recipe: What I did was put the black beans in the food processor when you were suppose to put the quinoa.  That's probably why mines didn't hold as well.  Will have to try this way next time.

Makes about 8 patties

1 cup Quinoa, cooked
1 cup Onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup sun-dried tomato, finely chopped
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
2 Tsp. Garlic, minced
2 Tsp. Organic no salt seasoning
Salt to taste

     Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
   
Saute onion and sun-dried tomatoes in a frying pan and cook for 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent.  Then add the garlic and no salt seasoning.

In a food processor, place hot mixture along with 3/4 cup cooked quinoa and pulse until smooth.

Transfer blended mixture into a mixing bowl and stir in remaining cooked quinoa and 3/4 cup black beans. Season to taste.

Allow mixture to cool so that you won't burn your hands making the patties.

Mold the mixture into 8 patties, or about 1/2 cup each by patting with hands.

Place on greased backing sheet and bake for about 20 minutes.

Flip burgers and bake for another 10 minutes.

Its can be served on burger buns or with a salad.
