Ingredients
1 ½ pound sweet potatoes
⅓ cup uncooked sprouted quinoa or millet (or 1 cup cooked)
1 cup old fashioned oats (use certified gluten-free oats if you have a gluten sensitivity)
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained (approximately 15 ounces) You may use less if you would like.
½ small red onion, diced
½ cup lightly packed fresh mint or parsley leaves, chopped
2 teaspoons cumin powder
1 teaspoon chilli powder
1 teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon cayenne powder (optional)
½ teaspoon Himalayan salt

INSTRUCTIONS
Wash the sweet potatoes.
Cook in Pressure Cooker (18 minutes) or in the Oven (45mins +)
Set aside to cool completely.

Note: I like to cook the potatoes at the same time as the quinoa so that they can cool while I prepare the rest of the ingredients.

Rinse the quinoa in a mesh colander then in a small saucepan combine with ⅔ cup water. Bring the quinoa to boil, then cover and reduce heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Let simmer for 15 minutes, then remove from heat, allow the quinoa steam with the lid on for 5 more minutes. Make sure to drain any excess water and set the quinoa aside to cool.

Grind the oats: Use a food processor or blender to grind the oats until the flakes are broken up. Make sure not to grind like flour, you would like a thicker consistency.

Once all the sweet potatoes and the quinoa have cooled: Mix the burger ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Use a big mixing spoon to mix really well.

Mix in the oats: Sprinkle the ground oats over the mixture and mix well until the mixture holds together to shape a portion of a patty. Suggestion: Cover and refrigerate the mix for best results.

Important: The patties will hold together much better while cooking if they have been chilled first. We suggest approximately an hour or more if you have more time.

Start shaping your burgers.

✅If you have any left over mixture, feel free to roll it up into bite size veggie balls that you may also freeze to enjoy another day. We enjoyed them in a veggie wrap.
