Ingredients & Substitutions
Quinoa is a fantastic protein source and gives these burgers a lovely texture. Feel free to swap in other beans like kidney or chickpeas if that’s what you have on hand. I also sometimes throw in some grated carrot or zucchini for extra veggies!
Tips & Notes
- •I always make a double batch and freeze half for those busy nights when cooking feels like a chore.
- •If you want an extra flavor boost, try adding some chopped herbs like cilantro or parsley.
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I’ll mix in some diced jalapeños for a spicy kick.
- •You can also add a tablespoon of nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor.
Storage & Freezing
These burgers store well in the fridge for about 3-4 days. Just keep them in an airtight container. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months - just thaw before reheating!
Frequently Asked Questions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, drained black beans (smash them slightly with a fork), oats, sautéed onion and garlic, flax flax egg, soy sauce, smoked paprika, cumin, black pepper, and salt.
