A few weeks ago a friend sent me a note about making BBQ Pasta Burgers. I made them and we found them very edible!
BBQ Pasta Burger-Vegan
Cook up some whole grain pasta. Let it cool completely, even put it in the refrigerator to make it cold.
In the bowl of a food processor place 4 cups of cold cooked pasta.
Add one 15-ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed (or about 1 1/2 cups black beans you have previously cooked.)
Add 1 Tablespoon chili powder
1/4 cup sun dried tomatoes-if possible without oil in them
1/3 cup your favorite barbecue sauce
1 chopped sweet onions
3 chopped garlic cloves
Pulse in the food processor until it has a nice somewhat smushy consistency.
Form into 1/3 to 1/2 cup burgers and place on parchment paper-lined half-sheet pan. Feel free to make them prettier than the ones in the photo.
Bake them at 350 degrees F. oven for 30-60 minutes or until they are the firmness you like.
Treat them like any other burger and stack them in a bun with lettuce, pickles, onion slices, tomatoes.
These are really pretty good!
