by | Apr 8, 2019

Ingredients

BURGERS

  • 4 cups organic black beans
  • 3 green onions
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 Tbsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 tsp salt/black pepper to taste

SIDES

  • 8 eggs (2 per food prep serving)
  • 8 egg whites (2 per food prep serving)
  • 1 large avocado (¼ per food prep serving)
  • 4 cups raw greens (1 cup per food prep serving)
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil ( to cook the eggs)

 

Directions

1) Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Drain and rinse the black beans. Place the black beans in a large bowl and mash them slightly with your hands or a potato masher. Slice the green onions and add them to the bowl along with the chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and salt. Stir until the beans are evenly seasoned.

2) Add to the seasoned black beans. Mix well using your hands. Form 10 small patties (about 2-2.5 inches diameter, 1/2 inch thick). Grease the pan with some oil so they don’t stick!

3) Bake the patties in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until browned on the outside and no longer pink in the center. Alternatively, you can cook the patties in a skillet, on a grill, or using an indoor countertop grill!

4) Serve 3 patties with each meal prep recipe, along with 2 eggs, ¼ avocado, and raw greens!
