White Bean & Spinach Burgers

Makes 6 Burgers.

• 1 15 oz. can of Cannellini beans, drained & rinsed
• 10 oz package of frozen chopped spinach, well drained with all excess water squeezed out with a dish towel
• 3/4 cups bread crumbs (I used whole grain)
• 1 egg white, lightly beaten
• 1 small onion, minced
• 1 1/2 tsp dried rosemary
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp onion powder
• salt & fresh black pepper, to taste

Directions:

• Mash beans in mixing bowl.  Add bread crumbs and then remaining ingredients.  Stir thoroughly until mixture sticks together well.
• If there is time to refrigerate, form into patties & chill.
• Can be cooked in a skillet with oil or brushed lightly with oil and grilled.

 

I served my burgers on toasted Arnold Wheat Sandwich Thins.  I love these buns especially for veggie or bean burgers.  These burgers would also be good served in Pita Bread.
