INGREDIENTS
VEGGIE BURGER
1 medium Sweet Potato, scrubbed (about 1 pound)
2 tbsp Olive Oil, divided
1 cup chopped White Onion
1 tsp Kosher Salt, divided, plus more to taste
1 clove of Garlic, minced
3/4 cup cooked Quinoa
1 19oz can cooked Black Beans, drained and rinsed (2¼ cups canned beans)
1/2 cup Panko Bread Crumbs
1/4 tsp Ground Black Pepper, plus more to taste
1/2 tsp Paprika
1/4 tsp Ground Cumin
TOPPINGS
6 tbsp Primal Kitchen® Mayo with Avocado Oil
1 8oz package of ¡Yo Quiero!™️ Chunky Guacamole
6 soft Burger Buns, toasted
1 cup Spinach
1 Beefsteak Tomato, sliced thin
1 Red Onion, sliced thin
DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat the oven to 375° F. Poke the sweet potato all over with a fork and wrap it in aluminum foil. Place on a baking sheet and roast until tender, about 1 hour. Let cool for 10 minutes and roughly chop. Makes 1 cup of cooked sweet potato.
2. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions, season with a pinch of salt, and sauté until soft and golden, 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring often, until the onions and garlic are golden browns, 5 minutes more. Remove from the heat and transfer to a food processor. Wipe the skillet clean and reserve for later use.
3. To the food processor, add the chopped sweet potato, quinoa, black beans, panko bread crumbs, ½ teaspoon of salt, pepper, paprika, and cumin, and pulse until the mixture is slightly chunky. Use your hands to form the mixture into 6 patties and transfer to a large plate. Chill in the fridge to firm up, uncovered, for 30 minutes or up to 1 day.
4. In a large skillet, heat 1½ teaspoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Working in 2 batches, add the patties and cook until both sides are golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes per side. Remove the patties and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate.
5. Spread the mayo on each bottom bun half. Divide the patties among the buns and top each with spinach, tomato, onion, and a generous spoonful of guacamole. Top with the other bun halves and serve.
