A zesty plant-based burger that does not compromise on flavor. Combine the burger ingredients in a food processor before cooking them on the stovetop. Layer lettuce, avocado, and red onion on top for the perfect bite.
Recipe yields 6 servings
In a food processor, combine the oil, garlic and beans; pulse 8 times or until beans make a thick paste. In a large bowl, combine bean mixture and bread crumbs. Stir in lime zest, chili powder, cilantro, salt and eggs. With moistened hands, divide bean mixture into 6 patties (about 1/3 cup each).
Lightly coat a large nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray and heat to medium high. Add patties to pan; reduce heat to medium and cook for about 3 minutes, or until bottom edges are browned. Turn patties over; cook for 3 minutes, or until bottom edges are brown.
Arrange the patties on the buns and top with the avocado, lettuce, tomato and red onion, if desired.
