For the Vegetarians among us (Yogagurl, that's you!
) and anyone else, I thought this sounded really good...it's from the new Cookbook, and makes 4 servings (burgers), each counts 1/2 protein, 1 V, 1 S:JALAPENO-RED BEAN BURGERS
1 15-1/2 oz. can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 small finely chopped onion
1 small chopped tomato
1 jalapeno, seeded and chopped (optional)
1 garlic clove, finely minced
1 tsp. chili powder
1/4 cup BBQ sauce (watch the sodium on the label)
1/3 c. breadcrumbs
1. Mash beans in bowl with a fork
2. Add next 6 ingredients
3. Add enough breadcrumbs to form patties (4 patties)
4. Make the patties
5. Skillet-grill with Pam until heated through, about 2-3 minutes each side
