Making my old favorite VEGETARIAN~Burgers

       Welcome back!!! We are shaking things up and going SAVORY!!! Believe it or not I had never made vegetarian burgers before. I buy these amazing veggie burgers from a local meat shop that are out of this world good! However, today I decided to mix it up and make my own burgers! These are so easy to make and so delicious! So, lets make some veggie black bean burgers. 

       Starting off take 1 can of black beans and pour them in a strainer; rinse theme under cold water until the water turns clear. Lay them on a sheet pan and put them in the 325 degree oven for 15 minutes.


       While your beans are roasting, get a large bowl and a spatula. In your large bowl, combine 1 package of vegetarian onion soup mix (1/2 oz), 1/3 cup panko, 1/2 cup feta cheese, 1 Tbs ketchup, 1 Tbs Worcester sauce, and 1 egg.

       Once your beans are slightly cooled add them to your bowl. I slightly crush the black beans into the bowl. I started mixing with a spatula and then switch to my hands to finish incorporating everything. After everything in evenly combined form your "dough" into burger patties. I suggest making them slightly thinner so it all gets nice and warm and crispy on the outside. 

       I put the patties on the grill and wait until they get a nice sear and are warm throughout. On top of my burger I have veggie "bacon" (which isn't as bad as it sounds), my papa's pickles, and onion! I serve mine with watermelon feta salad, potatoes au gratin, and corn. This dinner is easy, delicious and GREAT for a meatless Monday!!! Let me know if you try these and what you think!
