Bean Burgers

Simple Sunny Bean Burgers

Serves: 2
Preparation Time:
10 minutes

Ingredients:

1/4 cup sunflower seeds
2 cups cooked or canned red or pink beans, no salt added or low sodium, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup minced onion
2 tablespoons low sodium ketchup
1 tablespoon wheat germ or old fashioned rolled oats
1/2 teaspoon chili powder

Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly oil a baking sheet with a little olive oil on a paper towel.
Chop the sunflower seeds in a food processor or with a hand
chopper. Mash the beans in the food processor or with a potato masher
and mix with the sunflower seeds. Mix in the remaining ingredients and
form into six patties.
Place the patties on the baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly, until you can pick up each
patty and compress it firmly in your hands to re-form the burger. Return
the patties to the baking sheet, bottom side up, and bake for another
10 minutes.

These are one of my favorites.... I like to have ketchup with them... Really good with a Salad
