Sweet Potato Black Bean Burgers

Ingredients:

1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
2 cups cooked mashed sweet potatoes
1 small onion, chopped
1 tsp minced jar garlic
1 Tbsp dried cilantro
1-1/2 tsp cumin
1 tsp ground ginger
3/4 cup Quaker old fashioned oats
1/4 cup Wheat Gluten (or use more oats)
1/4 cup Sunflower Seeds
1 Tbsp Nutritional Yeast Flakes or Brewer's Yeast
1/2 tsp assorted chili peppers spice (I used  Nanami Togarashi   ) or use 1/4 tsp tabasco sauce and 1/2 tsp chili powder

Directions:

In a bowl, mash the beans to desired texture.   Mix in all the rest of the ingredients.

Form into patties and cook.  I cook them on my   Cuisinart 5-in-1 Griddler for about 20 minutes.  If you want to bake them in the oven, bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes.
