Measure | Ingredient |
---|---|
½ cup | Minced green onions. |
1½ tablespoon | Minced garlic. |
2 tablespoons | White wine/stock |
29 ounces | Cooked drained pinto beans |
¾ cup | Cracker meal or bread crumbs |
2 \N | Egg whites |
½ cup | Chopped fresh parsley |
2 tablespoons | Seasoned rice vinegar |
½ teaspoon | Italian seasonings (oregano, basil, etc.) |
Preheat oven 350 degrees. Saute onions/garlic in stock/white wine.
Combine with beans, cracker meal, egg whites, parsley, vinegar, seasonings. Mash well with fork until blended, but not entirely smooth. (Here I depart from recipe...I make up a bunch of hamburger sized patties, freeze some, refridge some, and cook them as needed for about 20 minutes in a toaster oven...I know they are done when the egg/bread crumbs are brown and the patty is a bit dry. I find this basic recipe can absorb many, many changes.I've used white beans, black beans, whatever, sauteed mushrooms, hot sauce, catsup, etc. The main thing is to get a good texture/cohesiveness in the final product, so it sticks together. Have fun!)
