Ingredients
- 3 pieces day-old or toasted whole wheat sandwich bread
- 3 tablespoons olive or canola oil divided
- 1 medium onion chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons minced jalapeno pepper membranes and seeds removed
- 1 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1 15 ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 ¼ cups cooked brown rice
- 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- ¼ cup chopped cilantro
Salsa:
- 2 avocados cut into ¾ inch pieces
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes cut in half
- 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
Instructions
The patties:
- In the bowl of a food processor, pulse sandwich bread to form breadcrumbs. Pour into a bowl and set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive or canola oil in a large skillet set over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until soft. Add garlic, jalapeno, and cumin. Saute for additional 2 minutes.
- Scrape the mixture into the food processor. Add black beans, brown rice, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Pulse until the beans are chopped, but not pureed.
- Scrape the black bean mixture into a large bowl. Add half of the breadcrumbs and the chopped cilantro. Stir the mixture until combined.
- Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and form into patties. If the mixture is too moist to form patties, add more breadcrumbs.
- Place the patties on a baking sheet lined with plastic wrap and cover with additional plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least ½ hour.
- Heat 1 tablespoon canola oil in a large skillet (preferably not nonstick, so a good crust can form) set over medium heat. Add 4 patties and cook for 4 minutes per side. Repeat with 1 tablespoon oil and remaining 4 patties.
- Serve 2 patties on each plate, topped with salsa.
The salsa:
- Gently stir together avocado, tomatoes and lime juice.
