Ingredients

For the Vegan Burger Patties:

1 cup cooked quinoa
1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
1 ripe avocado, mashed
2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)

For the Burger Toppings:

4 large lettuce leaves (such as romaine or butter lettuce)
1 medium tomato, sliced
1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
Pickles (optional)
Mustard or vegan mayo (sugar-free)

Directions

In a large mixing bowl, mash the black beans with a fork until they are mostly pureed but still have some texture.
Add the cooked quinoa, mashed avocado, ground flaxseed, finely chopped red onion, minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper to the bowl with the mashed black beans. Mix everything together until well combined.
Form the mixture into two burger patties. If the mixture is too sticky, you can wet your hands slightly to make it easier to handle.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are nicely browned and heated through.
While the patties are cooking, prepare the burger toppings. Wash and dry the lettuce leaves, slice the tomato and red onion, and gather any other desired toppings.
Once the burger patties are done, assemble the burgers by placing each patty on a lettuce leaf and topping with sliced tomatoes, red onions, pickles (if using), and a dollop of mustard or vegan mayo.
Serve your Avocado Vegan Burgers on a plate or wrap them in the lettuce leaves for a low-carb option.
