Ingredients

  • 1/2 c reduced sodium black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 c rolled oats
  • 1/2 c Heinz Reduced Sugar Ketchup
  • 1/2 tsp chipotle chili pepper powder
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 14 oz block extra firm tofu
  • 2 tsp canola oil, divided

Directions

Combine black beans, garlic cloves, egg, oats, ketchup, chili powder and salt in a food processor until smooth. Scrape into a large bowl.
Pat tofu dry (or allow to drain for 30-60minutes) to remove excess liquid. Crumble into coarse pieces and stir into black bean mixture. Divide mixture in half. Then divide each halve into 5 small patties for a total of 10 patties.
Heat 1tsp oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook tofu burgers until golden brown on each side, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and then add 1 tsp oil and cook the remaining patties.

Serving suggestions: over fresh crisp lettuce or with a side of roasted vegetables
