Diet Bean Burger Recipe, A Low Calorie Diet Recipe

Diet Bean Burger - A low fat, low calorie original recipe

Many diet researchers believe that beans were taboo in the Caveman Diet, but we assure you that our low fat recipe for Diet Beany Burger would blow that theory off the wall because who could resist such a delicacy?

Ingredients & Recipe for Diet Bean Burger - Makes several patties

1 cup of your favorite mashed beans (we like the black beans & we've even experimented with canned beans and had great results!)

1 cup of the following vegetables, seared until tender in a skillet sprayed with non stick cooking spray: diced onions, diced bell peppers, shredded zucchini; all veggies must be FINELY chopped.

1 teaspoon of cumin

1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper

salt & pepper to personal taste

2 Egg Whites

1 cup of breadcrumbs (seasoned or unseasoned)

Mix ingredients together and form into patties by mashing mixture tightly together with slightly damp hands OR by using plastic wrap to form patties.  Grill or cook in skillet sprayed with non stick cooking spray.  When grilled, foil may be used to help hold patty together should it decide to run away.  

 

Using the stove top cooking method, bean patties may be fried until golden using a bit of olive oil.  Olive oil seasoned with rosemary works wonderfully well and adds a wild flavor to the patty.

 

Serve on a toasted bun against a bed of bib lettuce, finely sliced tomato rounds, finely sliced raw onion rings with a smear of LIGHT Mayo OR mustard.
