Homemade Veggie Burgers

Ingredients:

1/4 cup quinoa
1/2 cup vegetable broth
2 cans black beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 onion, diced
1/2 cup roasted red peppers, diced
1/2 cup cooked corn kernels
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

1. Combine the quinoa and broth in a saucepan and bring it to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer covered until the quinoa is cooked, about 15 minutes.

2. In a bowl, slightly mash up the black beans, making sure to keep some whole.

3. In the same bowl mix all of the ingredients together, including the quinoa. Chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.

4. Shape mixture into patties. Cook in a frying pan with a little olive oil, about 3 minutes per side. Serve on a whole wheat bun with your favorite condiments.
