These are super fantastic! Its called the butter bean burger. It sounds gross, but it is really great!
INGREDIENTS
* 1 (15 ounce) can butter beans, drained
* 1 small onion, chopped
* 1 tablespoon finely chopped jalapeno pepper
* 6 saltine crackers, crushed
* 1 egg, beaten
* 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
* 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
* salt and pepper to taste
* 1/4 cup vegetable oil
DIRECTIONS
1. In a medium bowl, mash butter beans. Mix in onion, jalapeno pepper, crushed crackers, egg, cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Divide into 4 equal parts, and shape into patties.
2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; use more or less oil to reach 1/4 inch in depth. Fry patties until golden, about 5 minutes on each side.
They can get a little messy when you make them, and you can subsitute the butter beans with black beans.
