The Ingredients: From Left to right - Ground Flax, Water, Spices, Rice Crumbs Center - 2 cans of beans; I used black and white northern. |
Step 1: Make an Egg
If you're not egg-allergic, you can skip this step and just use a real egg. If you're like me, mix 1 tbsp of Ground Flax with 3 tbsp of water. Let sit.
Step 2: Make the Mixture
Take a fork. Mash the beans until they're nice and mashed.
Add your "breadcrumbs". I used rice crumbs, but I've also used GF Flour.
Add the "egg".
Add whatever spices you deem fit. I just kinda added pinches of onion powder, oregano, and garlic powder. I use Penzey's brand spices, as McCormick is NOT CORN FREE.
Step 3: Form and Cook
Shape the mixture however you'd like. I did mostly meatballs plus a patty.
Fry them off. I used Grapeseed oil.
Let sit on paper towel while you cook the rest.
Yummy! |
Step 4: Serve!
I topped mine with fresh goat cheese from the Farmer's Market. Yummy yummy :)
