1. The best way to do this is in a blender. Add chop onions, garlic; process all until finely chopped. Add mushrooms and black beans; plus 4 to 5 times. Transfer mixture to a large bowl; stir in breadcrumbs, lemon juice, cumin, salt, pepper and egg white. Divide bean mixture into 8 equal portions, shaping each into a 3/4 inch patties.
2. Heat skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tsp. oil; swirl to cover. Add 4 patties; cook 3 minutes on each side or until browned.
3. Place sliders on the buns ( I toasted mine). Add the tomato, lettuces and slice red onion.

Walk on the wild side with fun and funky sandwich suppers. We made burgers, grilled cheese and other roasted vegetable for our dinners. I’m not much of a vegetarian, but I love these black bean burgers! Missing meat once a week is a very good choice. More veggies and beans are ok for us. Give it a try, you will like it, they are delicious. Enjoy!!
