The cilantro really gives these burgers a terrific flavor. I'm usually too lazy to make the mango salsa and prefer it with less cilantro. I top it with cheese instead, but the salsa is good because it keeps the burgers from being too dry.
Burger Ingredients:
2 (15 ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
3/4 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1/4 cup Panko breadcrumbs
2 tsp cumin
1 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 medium jalapeno pepper, finely chopped (I omit)
2 large egg whites
Salsa Ingredients:
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
1 1/4 cup chopped peeled mango (about 1 medium)
1 avocado, peeled and chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
whole wheat hamburger buns, lightly toasted
6 green leaf lettuce leaves (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Place black beans in a medium bowl and mash with a fork or potato masher. Stir in 1/2 cup cilantro and the next 7 ingredients (through the egg whites). Shape bean mixture into 6 patties. Arrange patties on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil and coated with cooking spray. Bake for 20 minutes, carefully turning once.
Combine salsa ingredients in a bowl. Place a patty on each hamburger bun and top with lettuce, salsa, and top half of bun.
