Help with Black Bean Burgers

[Guest guest]

In my last post, I said that I have trouble with eating raw, although I

am convinced that it is the #1 most healthy way to eat. :-) So I am

sending this recipe because not only will it appeal to generally

health-conscious people, but also hoping that one of you raw people will

tell me if there is a way to make this a raw recipe? It sounds

delicious, but I know that it would make me sick. :-)

Thanks much,

TerriLynne

I would try soaking the beans for 2 days, then putting them in a blender with enough soaking water to process. I would add:

1 or 2 green onions, chopped

3/4 cup cilantro

2 tsp jalapeno

1 tbsp olive oil

1/2 tsp cumin, optional

Blend and serve on lettuce leaves like a sandwich.

Hi Gala,

This sounds really good. I didn't know that you could just soak the

beans and then use them. I have only seen people using them sprouted.

Thanks,

You sure can soak them. I soaked my first garbanzos for 4 days before I got

the nerve to try them. The taste is not the same as cooked, but that flat

starchy taste is lessened by soaking, and they are softer for the blender.
