ingredients
- 4 tablespoons oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 jalapeno peppers, minced
- 2 teaspoons garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Mexican chili powder (mild)
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1⁄4 teaspoon dried oregano
- 3 (15 ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 1⁄2 cups quick-cooking oats
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1⁄2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon ground black pepper
directions
- Heat a nonstick frying pan over medium heat until hot. Add the oil and when it is warm, add the onion. Stir-fry for 5 minutes.
- Add the jalapeno peppers and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the garlic and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Turn off heat and stir in the chili powder, ground cumin and oregano. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
- Meanwhile, rinse and drain (several times) the black beans and then put them into a large mixing bowl.
- Roughly mash the black beans with a potato masher or a fork.
- Add the uncooked oats and stir to combine.
- Add the cooked onions and stir to combine.
- Add the eggs,cilantro (more or less depending on how much you like cilantro), salt and pepper. You can add a bit more pepper if desired.
- Mix well and form into patties. They are easier to fry if you make a smaller size pattie and use a smaller hamburger bun.
- Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat and cook 4-5 minutes on the first side, or until well browned. Carefully flip over the burgers and cook about 3 minutes on the second side. Like most vegetarian burgers, they can crumble, so extra care needs to be taken when frying them.
- Serve with your favorite garnishes.

I like to eat a variety of food so have lots of different kinds of recipes that I have added and reviewed. Probably the favorite foods that I have reviewed are the ones with Nutella in the ingredients.
