Jamaican Burgers
4 slices of stale bread; or toasted
2 teaspoons Canola oil; *
1 1/2 cups of chopped onion
2 Cloves garlic; minced
1 tablespoon of fresh ginger; minced
1/2 teaspoon of allspice
1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg
1 1/2 cups of cooked black beans; (15 oz)

4 Hamburger buns; low calorie
* 2 tbsp was the original (which results in 19% CFF). Use one tsp to
sauté the veggies and spices. And use another only if you do not have a
good non-stick skillet to brown the patties. Make bread crumbs from the
stale or toasted bread. Sauté the onions in 1 tsp oil for 5 minutes,
until soft. Add the garlic, ginger, allspice, and nutmeg and sauté for 2
more minutes. Put this mixture into a food processor. Add the beans,
rice, and chile pepper. Pulse to chop the ingredients. (Do not puree
them.) Mix with the bread crumbs, and add salt and pepper. If the
mixture is too wet, add more bread crumbs. Cook the burgers in hot pan
about 4 minutes per side until a dark crust forms. Serve on rolls with
condiments of choice. Chutney is nice with these. 4 Servings
