Entree

Ingredients

• 3 cups cooked black or red kidney beans (or 2 x 14oz cans no-sodium, drained and rinsed)
• 3/4 cups quick cooking oats (not instant)
• 1/2 sweet yellow onion, chopped
• 1/2 tsp. fresh black pepper
• 3/4 tsp. potassium salt
• 2 tsp. paprika
• 2 tsp. parsley, dried
• 1 tsp. garlic powder
• 1 tbsp. hot mustard
• 2 tbsp. stoneground mustard
• 1 flax egg (1 tbsp. ground flax + 3 tbsp. water, combine and let sit about 10 min)

Preparation

Step 1

1. Place beans into bowl and roughly mash with a potato masher. Add remaining ingredients and mix together until fully combined.

2. Form mixture into 10 - 12 patties (not too thick). Heat a lightly oiled frying pan over medium heat and carefully place patties into pan. Cook about 10 - 12 min. or until lightly browned, then flip and repeat on other side (do not overcook or they will become too dry!).

3. Serve immediately with tomatoes, red onion and avocado, over baked brown rice or in a 100% whole grain hamburger bun.
