Ingredients
- 1 can (15 oz./398 mL) black beans, drained and rinsed
- 6–8 scoops Enrichables™ Super Veggie
- 1 egg
- 1 cup (250 mL) corn
- ½ cup (125 mL) brown rice, cooked
- ⅓ cup (75 mL) plain breadcrumbs
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) Tex-Mex Rub (or any other rub or seasoning)
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) oil
- 4 buns
- Optional: Avocado slices, tomato slices, lettuce, or hot sauce
Directions
Process the beans, Enrichables™, and egg in the Manual Food Processor until the beans are mashed and all the ingredients are combined.
Transfer the bean mixture to a medium bowl. Add corn, rice, breadcrumbs, and rub. Mix well.
Heat the oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat for 1–3 minutes.
Form about ⅓ cup (75 mL) of the mixture into a patty. Repeat for the rest of the mixture.
Cook the patties for 4–6 minutes per side, or until well-browned.
Serve the patties in the buns. If you’d like, serve with avocado, tomato, lettuce, or hot sauce.

Cook's Tips:
You can use any rub you’d like. Our Tex-Mex Rub pairs well with the beans and the corn! To help the patties keep their shape, chill the mixture for 15–20 minutes before forming.
