Because I'm lazy and also on a very strict budget, I am ALL about easy, quick dinners with minimal ingredients. Here's a black bean cake (not the chocolately kind) that makes a great dinner!
1 can black beans
2 Tbsp ketchup
1 Tbsp mustard (any kind will do...I use Dijon)
1/4 cup onion, chopped very fine
1 packet instant oatmeal
Seasonings to taste
Rinse and drain the black beans well. Mash with a fork to get lumpy, pasty consistency. Add in ketchup, mustard, onion (and/or any other finely chopped veggies you'd like), oatmeal and seasoning and mix well. Form 4 separate patties. Cook patties in pan set to medium, 5 minutes for each side. Eat as is or stick it in a hamburger bun.
It's really hard to screw these up. Go ahead and play with different ingredients to see what you like. I didn't drain the beans very well last time so they were less held-together, but still delicious!

Thanks a bunch had been trying to figure out how to make some veggie burgers without tons of sodium.0

They sound yummy. I'm making mixed bean enchiladas for tea with a tin of beans0

What size packet of instant oatmeal? I'm in the UK and the brands are probably different, an idea of weight would help...0

These sound delicious! Do you find that they fall apart easily, or will they hold up to be eaten in a bun?0

What else do you make? I'm on a very strict budget as well, and always on the look out for something new.0 -
I might have to try these. Cheesecake factory makes the best veggie burgers I've ever tasted out of black beans and, I think, brown rice. I actually prefer them to beef burgers and I used to be all about getting giant hamburgers when I went out to eat.0

looking good, I will give them a try. If you make a lot you can freeze them and take them out in days you don't have the time for cooking0
