Whole Foods 365 Mushroom Quinoa Burger Taste Test

Rinse quinoa under cold water and cook according to package instructions until fluffy.

Chop mushrooms and onion finely, and grate the carrot.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté onion and garlic until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Add chopped mushrooms and grated carrot to the skillet and cook until mushrooms are browned, about 5-7 minutes.

In a large bowl, combine cooked quinoa, sautéed vegetables, black beans, breadcrumbs, egg, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Mix until well combined and form into patties, about 1/2 inch thick.

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a little olive oil.

Cook patties for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and heated through.

Toast burger buns lightly in the skillet or oven.

Assemble burgers by placing a patty on each bun and topping with lettuce, tomato, and avocado.

Serve immediately with your choice of condiments.
