Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup red bell pepper, finely chopped
- 1 cup kale, tough center stems removed, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 2 (15 oz) cans white beans, drained and rinsed
- 3/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 6 hamburger buns, toasted, for serving
Instructions
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium skillet over medium high heat. Once hot, add the onion and bell pepper and sauté until the onion is tender, about 3 minutes. Add the kale and cook, while stirring, until softened, another 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant. Sprinkle with the smoked paprika, give a stir, and season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
- Add the cooked veggie mixture to a food processor along with the rinsed white beans. Pulse the mixture about 6 times, until it's chunky. Remove to a bowl and add the breadcrumbs and the egg. Stir all together and give another little season of salt and pepper. (If you don't have a food processor, you can mash with a potato masher.)
- Form the bean mixture into 6 equal sized patties. Place in the fridge for 30 minutes to set up.
- Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium high heat. Cook the burger on each side for 3-4 minutes, until golden and crisp on the outside. Serve the burger between a nice toasted bun topped with lettuce and tomato.
- Toppings ideas: Lettuce and tomato, ketchup, mustard, mayo (or any other topping you may desire!)
