Cook the patties in a skillet and serve on buns for a tasty and protein-packed vegetarian meal. Ingredients ½ cup bulgur 1 can (15.5 ounces) pinto beans, rinsed and drained ½ cup grated Swiss cheese ½ cup finely grated carrots (from 2 medium carrots) 1 scallion, thinly sliced 1 large egg, lightly beaten Coarse salt and ground pepper 1 tablespoon olive oil 4 buns Sprouts, for serving Avocado slices, for serving Directions In a large bowl, combine bulgur and 1 cup boiling water. Cover tightly and let sit until bulgur is tender, 30 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing to remove liquid, then return bulgur to bowl. In a food processor, pulse pinto beans until coarsely chopped. Add beans to bulgur, along with Swiss cheese, carrots, scallion, and egg. Season with salt and pepper; mix well. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium. Add 1/2 cup bean mixture and press lightly with a spatula to flatten. Make 3 more patties, working in batches if necessary (add more oil for second batch), and cook until browned and cooked through, 3 minutes per side. Serve burgers on buns with sprouts and avocado slices. Rate it Print
