Sweet Potato, Quinoa & Bean Burgers

ingredients

• 1 sweet potato

• ⅓ cup (60g) quinoa, raw

• 14 oz. (400g) can kidney beans, drained

• 1 tsp. rosemary

• ½ tsp. chili flakes

• 1 ½ tbsp. olive oil

instructions

1. Preheat oven to 410°F (210°C) and cut the sweet potato into ¾ inch (2cm) pieces. Place it in an ovenproof dish, drizzle with ½ tbsp. olive oil and season with salt & pepper, rosemary, and chili flakes. Bake for 25-30 minutes.

2. Once potatoes are cooked, allow them to cool slightly. Then peel off the skin, place in a bowl, and mash the flesh with a fork. Add in the drained beans and also mash with a fork.

3. Cook quinoa according to instructions on the packaging. Once cooked, transfer to the mashed beans and potato, season with salt & pepper, and mix well.

4. Using slightly wet hands, form 4 burgers and grease each one with the remaining olive oil. Place on a baking tray lined with tin foil and bake for 20-25 minutes in 410°F (210°C).
