A medley of cooked vegetables, pinto beans, and quick-cooking oats make a flavorful, grillable vegan patty that won't fall apart. 

• 2 cups prepared Farmer Direct Organic Pinto Beans, drained

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 small red onion, diced
• 1 medium carrot, chopped
• 1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
• 1 cup white button mushrooms, sliced
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp. each chili powder, ground cumin, and ground coriander
• ½ tsp. each sea salt and black pepper
• 1 cup quick oats
• Oil for cooking

 Directions

In a large skillet over medium-high heat sauté onions, carrots, red peppers, and mushrooms in olive oil for about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, seasonings and drained pinto beans and cook, stirring, another couple minutes.

Process in a food processor with quick oats, scraping down sides a couple times, until uniformly chunky puree forms.

Form into 6 flat patties and let rest in refrigerator for 1 hour.

Heat large skillet over medium-high heat, pour in a thin film of oil, and cook burgers until browned, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.

Serve hot on buns with toppings of choice.
