Details

A delicious and easy black bean burger taken over the top with a dollop of guacamole, zingy pickled onions, and chewy-soft Jalapeño Pretzel Buns. A quick weeknight dinner or weekend treat. The pickled onions can be made and stored in the refrigerator up to 1 week ahead. Leftover onions are delicious with tacos, beans and rice, and almost any sandwich.

Ingredients

1 medium (145 g) red onion, peeled and thinly sliced
1 cup water
½ cup white vinegar
1 tablespoon (12 g) sugar
1½ teaspoons (12 g) Kosher salt
1 15.5 oz can black beans, drained
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 cup (80 g) rolled oats
1 teaspoon (3 g) garlic powder
1 teaspoon (4 g) onion powder
1 teaspoon (4 g) chili powder
½ teaspoon (2 g) cumin
¼ teaspoon (2 g) salt
2 tablespoons (6 g) chopped parsley
1 tablespoon water
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 PRETZILLA® Soft Pretzel Burger Buns, Jalapeno
¼ cup microgreens or sprouts of choice
½ cup prepared guacamole, or more to taste

Preparation

1 – To prepare Quick Pickled Onions, place the sliced onions in a heatproof glass bowl. Combine the water, vinegar, sugar and salt in a small pot over medium high heat; bring to a boil. Remove from heat and pour vinegar mixture over onion. Let stand 1 hour. Cover and chill. Remove onions from liquid with a fork to serve.

2 – To prepare Bean Burgers, place beans and soy sauce in a bowl and lightly mash with a fork or potato masher; mixture should be chunky. Place oats, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, cumin, and salt in a food processor or blender; pulse until combined and oats are coarsely chopped. Add oat mixture to bean mixture, add parsley and water; stir to combine. Cover and let stand 10 minutes.

3 – Form the bean mixture into 4 patties, about ½” thick. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook 5 minutes per side or until browned and crisp.

4 – Heat Buns according to package directions and split horizontally. Spread 1 tablespoon guacamole on the bottom halves of the Jalapeño Burger Buns; top with 1 tablespoon microgreens, 1 bean patty, 1 tablespoon guacamole, and one tablespoon Quick Pickled Onions. Cap with bun tops and serve.
