Loading...These kidney bean burgers are a great alternative to store-bought veggie burgers— plus, they are easy to make! Perfect for a summer barbecue atop a whole wheat bun with your favorite burger fixings or try them crumbled on a salad for something out of the box!
Ingredients
- 1 cup dried red kidney beans (or 1.5 cans kidney beans)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ½ cup chopped herbs like parsley, oregano, garlic, shallots, or a mix.
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
Directions
- Add the beans to a pot with 3 cups of water and bring slowly to a boil. (Skip steps 1 and 2 if using canned beans.)
- Simmer for 90 minutes or until soft.
- Remove from heat and drain beans, saving the “bean water”.
- In a skillet on low heat, mix the herbs and olive oil and heat.
- Add beans and lemon juice and mash with a fork.
- When the beans reach an even consistency, add bean water and continue cooking over very low heat until all water has evaporated.
- Form into patties and serve hot or cold.
