olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

Canola oil is less expensive and has a neutral flavor.

Cook quinoa according to package instructions until fluffy.

In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and sauté chopped onion and garlic until translucent.

Add grated carrots and diced bell pepper to the skillet; cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

In a large bowl, mash black beans with a fork until mostly smooth.

Combine the cooked quinoa, sautéed vegetables, oats, flaxseed, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper with the mashed beans.

Mix until well combined; form into patties.

Heat a grill or skillet over medium heat and lightly oil the surface.

Cook patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Toast burger buns on the grill until lightly browned.

Assemble burgers with lettuce and avocado slices on the buns.

Serve immediately with your favorite condiments.
