Ingredients

1 cup Dry Black Beans, Cooked (Or Use One 15 1/2 Oz. Size Can Of Black Beans, Drained)
3/4 cups Dry Brown Rice, Cooked According To Package Instructions
13 cups Shredded Cooked Red Beets
1 cup Quick Oats
1 whole Small Onion, Diced
2 Tablespoons Chia Seeds
3 Tablespoons Water
2 Tablespoons Tahini
2 Tablespoons Soy Sauce
2 teaspoons Brown Mustard
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/2 teaspoons Chili Powder
1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
1/2 teaspoons Each, Salt And Pepper

Directions

1

If you havent already done so, cook beets, black beans (if not using canned) and brown rice in separate pans.
2

Preheat oven to 350 F.
3

When the black beans are cooked and tender, mash them in a large bowl.
4

Gently mix in all the other ingredients until incorporated.
5

The mixture will be slightly sticky and have a lot of texture, not smooth.
6

Divide the mixture into the size and amount of burgers desired (I made 6).
7

Flatten them to an even consistency.
8

Lay the burgers on a parchment lined rimmed baking sheet and bake for approximately 10 minutes.
9

Remove from oven.
10

At this point you can freeze them for future meals or fry them on the stove in a griddle pan with a little olive oil until the sides are crisp and griddle lines form on each side.
11

This will only take a few minutes per side.
12

Top with avocado, salt, pepper, salsa...anything you would likeits your burger!
