Ingredients

  • 16 ounces cooked broccoli

  • 1 cup Italian bread crumbs

  • 1 ½ cup shredded cheese

  • 3 eggs

  • Salt, pepper and garlic to taste

  • Black bean burger (frozen, suggested-Morning Star Brand)

Directions

  • Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Thaw 16 ounces of broccoli (or cook
    fresh broccoli until soft), and chop into small pieces. Combine your broccoli,
    1 cup of Italian bread crumbs, 1-2 cups of cheese, 3 eggs and 1 tablespoon of
    salt, pepper and garlic salt into a large bowl.
  • Mix together well.
  • Create small patties (the smaller, the crispier they get) and place them on a
    parchment paper lined baking sheet.
  • Bake in the oven at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes (depending on how
    large you make your patties) flip half way through.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Serve with ranch or
    your favorite dipping sauce.
  • . For the black bean burgers, warm up in the microwave, 1:15-2 minutes each.
