Guest guest Posted October 4, 1999 Report Share Posted October 4, 1999 Here is another that made it to my This Weeks Winners from the Low Fat & Fast book: * Exported from MasterCook * Caribbean Bean Burgers Recipe By : Low Fat & Fast from Vegetarian Times Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Vegetarian Days Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 1 15 ounce can great northern beans -- rinsed & drained 1 cup plain bread crumbs 1/4 cup finely chopped onion 1 egg -- slightly beaten 3 tablespoons skim milk -- or soy milk 1 clove garlic -- minced 1 teaspoon Jerk seasoning 1/4 teaspoon salt nonstick cooking spray 4 hamburger buns -- whole wheat red onion slices tomato slices In a medium mixing bowl, mash beans with a fork until smooth. Stir in remaining ingredients (except for buns, onion and tomato), mix well. Shape mixture into 4 patties, about 4 inches in diameter. Spray a nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Heat skillet over medium heat. Cook patties in skillet until browned, turning once, about 8 minutes. Serve burgers on buns with tomato and onion slices. Also make sure to have catsup handy. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - NOTES : My substitutions: I used egg substitute instead of eggs, and soy milk instead of skim milk. I also did the whole thing in the food processor - I pulses the beans and the onion together and then added the other ingredients. Pulsed a few times just to combine. These were the best bean burgers I have ever eaten. They just needed a touch more spice in my opinion (altho' my husband felt they were fine the way they were.) I served them with roasted potatoes seasoned with adobo seasoning. RisaG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
