Black Bean Burgers with Avocado Spread & Mixed Greens SaladBlack Bean Burgers with Avocado Spread & Mixed Greens Salad — a 35-minute dinner recipe with 12 ingredients, serving 6.Ingredients

3 avocados

3 (398 ml) cans black beans

1 ½ small pkgs grape tomatoes

3 limes

1 ½ (142 g) pkg spring mix (mixed greens)

6 whole grain buns or rolls

1 ½ medium yellow onions

black pepper

chili powder

extra virgin olive oil

panko bread crumbs

salt

Instructions

Drain the beans (but don't rinse them) and transfer to a large bowl. Use a potato masher or fork to mash them until they are mostly broken up, but there are still some whole beans left.

Coarsely grate the onion and add to the bowl.

Add the bread crumbs, chili powder, salt, and pepper to the beans and onion; stir until the mixture is combined.

Heat a skillet over medium heat.

Form the bean mixture into six patties.

Add olive oil to the skillet and swirl to coat the bottom.

Place the patties in the skillet and cook until they are browned and heated through, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Once done, transfer to a plate.

Toast the buns if desired.

Wash and dry the fresh produce. (Skip the greens if they came pre-washed.)

Halve and pit the avocados; medium dice the flesh while it's still in the skin, then scoop out into a small bowl.

Add juice of 1 ½ limes to the avocados and season with salt and pepper; mash with a fork until smooth.

Halve the grape tomatoes.

Place the bun halves on plates, top with the black bean patties, and add dollops of the avocado spread. Arrange the greens on the side, top with the grape tomatoes, and drizzle with olive oil and the remaining lime. Enjoy!
