Butternut Black Bean Burgers
INGREDIENTS
•
1 flax egg [1 TBSP ground flax + 3 TBSP water] or 1 egg

1 cup mashed black beans [refried black beans work too!]

1 cup pureed butternut squash

⅓ cup diced onion
•
⅓ cup diced celery
•
2 cloves of garlic, smashed and minced
•
1 TBSP olive oil [or butter]
•
¾ tsp salt-free Italian seasoning blend [like mrs. dash]
•
½ tsp garlic powder
•
½ tsp dried parsley [or fresh if you have it!]
•
¼ tsp salt
•
⅛ tsp Cayenne Pepper
•
1.5 cups old-fashioned rolled oats [not instant]
•
the toppings:
•
4 burger buns [I used a bakery poppyseed onion bun - amazing!]
•
4 slices of pepper jack cheese
•
romaine lettuce
•
fresh baby spinach
•
mayo [store-bought or homemade] mixed with sriracha chili sauce
•
note: Most weekends I'll cube and roast an entire butternut squash and use it for soups, salads, and even these burgers! You can puree roasted butternut squash at home for this recipe or opt for a store bought puree, totally up to you!
