Tex-Mex Bean Burgers
These burgers are served in a bun with typical taco toppings, giving them a decidedly Mexican flavor.

Ingredients
Directions
1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2 Place the beans in a medium bowl and mash slightly with a bean masher. Stir well, then add bread crumbs, green chilies, green onions and egg replacer mixture. Mix well. Place the cornmeal in a shallow bowl. Shape the mixture into 5 patties, each about 1/2 inch thick. Dip each side into the cornmeal, then place on a non-stick baking sheet.
3 Bake for 20 minutes, 10 minutes on each side.
4 To serve, place some shredded lettuce on the bottom of the bun, put the burger on the lettuce, then top with guacamole (or Broccomole recipe in Dips & Spreads) and salsa, and the top of the bun.
Hint: I usually double this recipe when I make it so we have some extra for lunch the next day. These keep well in the refrigerator and may also be frozen. They reheat well in the microwave or on a griddle.
