Fat-Free Baked Mexican Black Bean Burgers

Mostly vegan/vegetarian. As a Cherokee-Swede born in South Africa I am drawn to multi-cultural traditional tastes. The tastes that are so perfect they become go-to dishes for many people. People are missing out! Matoke with peanut sauce, Uganda's national dish, is beyond your dreams in terms of taste! Rye/pumpernickle bread, so hearty and thick. Oatmeal made the old fashioned way. (Bet you don't know what that is!)

burger entree protein

1 packed cup (150g) red bell pepper, finely chopped

5 small red potatoes (410 g, you will need 1 cup packed cooked mashed red potatoes)

2 15 oz cans no-sodium black beans, drained and rinsed

¾ cup smooth salsa (Not chunky, I've used both my homemade and a regular Trader Joe's salsa)

2 teaspoons chili powder

1 teaspoon ground cumin

½ teaspoon fine sea salt

½ teaspoon ground oregano spice (optional)

¼ cup medium grind coarse cornmeal (it MUST be the one labeled "medium grind", regular cornmeal is too fine and will make these dry/crumbly (I used this one by Bob's Red Mill)

subheading: NOTE:

Please make sure to fully read each step, as the process of order of how the ingredients is very important to get the batter mixed correctly. Also, feel free to use any of your favorite salsa, just make sure to use a runny one, not a thick chunky one and pick one with a flavor you love, since the burgers will reflect that flavor. I have used both my homemade recipe on my blog and I love Trader Joe's as well. I would pick a mild heat, or the burgers will be too spicy.
