Hamburgers are popular food, not only because they are easy to make, but also because they are delicious. I finally invented a healthy quinoa burger that wasn't dry and crumbly or really boring. These fit the bill. They taste like chips and dip in a burger!

Ingredients

8 slices red onion
8 slices tomato
8 lettuce leaves
8 whole wheat hamburger buns, split
2 tbsp. reduced-sodium taco seasoning
1 cup crushed baked tortilla chip scoops
1 jar (16 ounces) salsa, divided
1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained
1/3 cup quinoa, rinsed
2/3 cup water

Method

01

In a small saucepan, bring water to a boil. Add quinoa. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, 12-15 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat; fluff with a fork.
02

In a large bowl, mash black beans. Add 1 cup salsa, tortilla chips, taco seasoning and cooked quinoa; mix well. Shape into eight 1/4-in.-thick patties.
03

Grill, covered, over medium heat 5-6 minutes on each side or until heated through. Serve on buns with lettuce, tomato, onion and remaining salsa.
04

To bake patties: Preheat oven to 350℉. Place patties on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Bake 25-30 minutes or until heated through, turning once.
