Black Bean Burgers

If grilling, preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil a sheet of aluminum foil. If baking, preheat oven to 375 degrees F, and lightly oil a baking sheet.

In a medium bowl, mash black beans until thick and pasty.

In a food processor, finely chop bell pepper, jalapeno pepper, onion, and garlic. If you don't have a food processor, dice it all. Then stir into mashed beans.

In a small bowl, stir together egg, chili powder, cumin, and chili sauce.

Stir the egg mixture into the mashed beans. Mix in bread crumbs until the mixture is sticky and holds together. Might need more breadcrumbs. Divide mixture into four patties.

If grilling, place patties on foil, and grill about 8 minutes on each side. If baking, place patties on baking sheet, and bake about 14 minutes on each side, until not soft and mushy.
