Do you have the recipe for those black bean/quinoa burgers?? those look AMAZING.
(from memory, i can't give actual quantities but its easy to do.)
the ingredients are...
-black beans (i used canned, unsalted)
-quinoa
-cilantro (fine chop)
-red onion (i always cook my diced onion before adding it to the mix.)
-garlic (to taste)
-jalapeno (to taste)
-salt (to taste, remember to adjust based on salted and unsalted beans)
-pepper (to taste)
-curry powder (i put a pinch in almost everything i cook, usually people cant place what it is but its subtle and tastes great.)
quantities are whatever you want although you need to have the right consistency of black beans to quinoa so it holds together. i mash up the black beans into a paste, but leaving some intact so you have pieces of beans. start with the beans and dice up the other ingredients, slowly add the quinoa until you have a good patty consistency. after forming the patties i put mine in the fridge overnight and it seemed to help set them. prob not necessary but it seems to help.
top it with whatever. i used daiya vegan cheese (its the only one that melts and doesn't taste horrible), grilled mushrooms, tomatoes and green cabbage. cabbage holds up for weeks in the fridge, even cut. and it does not wilt when it hits hot food, so its always crunchy.
i also always put the cold toppings on the bottom and the hot toppings on top.
