TAGGED

INGREDIENTS:

2 tsp. olive oil

1 cup chopped onion

2 Tablespoons spicy barbecue sauce

1 cup frozen corn, thawed

1/2 cup cooked rice

- (may be increased up to 1 cup)

1 15 oz. can black beans, drained and rinsed

1/2 cup toasted walnuts or pecans

- (ground to a coarse powder)

1 cup plain bread crumbs

salt

DIRECTIONS: Heat oil in skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until

edges start to brown, about 5 minutes. Add corn and barbecue sauce. Cook,

stirring, for a few minutes to blend flavors. Remove pan from heat. Place corn

mixture, rice, and beans in a food processor. Pulse several times until

ingredients are blended, but mixture is still chunky. Transfer mix to a large

bowl. Add nuts and bread crumbs. Mix with a large spoon until thoroughly

combined. Season with salt to taste. Divide and shape mixture into 10 small

burgers or 6 large ones. Add more bread crumbs if mixture does not hold

together well. Prepare grill or preheat broiler. If using a grill, place

patties on vegetable grid. If broiling, place patties on pan lined with lightly

oiled aluminum foil. Grill over medium hot coals, or broil 3 to 6 inches from

heat until lightly browned -- 4 to 6 minutes each side. Serve immediately.
