UMBC Eats Community Cookbook Recipe of the Week

3/4 cup uncooked old-fashioned regular rolled oats

2 garlic cloves, finely chopped

1 tablespoon soy sauce

2 teaspoons chili powder

3 scallions, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons canola oil

4 hamburger buns

1 cup salsa

Lettuce

Tomato slices

Red onion slices

Process beans, oats, garlic, soy sauce, and chili powder in a food processor until ingredients begin to come together, about 30 seconds. Transfer bean mixture to a large bowl; stir in scallions. Shape mixture into 4 (3/4 cup) patties. Let patties stand at room temperature 5 minutes, or refrigerate up to 3 hours. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Cook patties in hot oil until browned, about 5 minutes per side. Place 1 patty on each hamburger bun bottom, and top each with 1/4 cup salsa. Add lettuce, tomato slices, and red onion slices, and cover with bun tops.
