Black Bean Power Burger with Avocado Crema

Begin by caramelizing the onion. Heat a medium saucepan on medium-high. Add oil and onion, then reduce heat to medium. Saute, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft and light golden brown, about 15–20 minutes. Season with salt, remove from heat, and set aside.

While onion is cooking, prepare avocado crema. In a food processor, combine avocado, sour cream, lime juice and a pinch of salt. Process until smooth, then set aside.

To make the burgers, sauté Power Blend for 2 minutes until softened. Add minced garlic and stir for 1 more minute, then remove from heat.

In a medium mixing bowl, mash black beans with a potato masher or food mill. Add sautéed Power Blend, egg, bread crumbs, Sriracha, salt and pepper. Stir to combine, then form mixture into 6 patties.

Cook patties in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, about 5–6 minutes per side, until nicely browned. Place 1 burger patty on top of 1 green leaf lettuce. Top with a couple of spoonfuls of caramelized onion and a dollop of avocado crema. Wrap burger leaf around the patty, close with a toothpick, and serve.
