Salsa Bean Cake Recipe

Looking for a quick dinner that's sure to hit the spot? Try these tasty and filling 15-minute bean burgers.

Ingredients

• 1 can of red kidney beans, rinsed and drained

• 1 large egg

• 1 cup crushed tortilla chips

• ½ cup medium salsa

• 2 tsp cooking oil

Directions

1. Mash beans in a medium bowl.

2. Add next 3 ingredients, mix well.

3. Divide into 6 equal portions and shape into patties.

4. Heat cooking oil in a large frying pan on medium heat.

5. Add the patties and cook for about 5 minutes per side, until lightly brown and heated through.

This recipe makes 6 small-to-medium patties. We like to double the recipe, to make 6 bigger burgers.

We've also added different spices from time to time to keep it interesting. We've tried cumin, coriander, paprika and cilantro. Add however much (spice) you like of each!
