Beef & Black Bean Burgers

Can you please take a moment and look at that MEAT!!!! And yes, it is just as delicious as it looks. This ground beef I got from 5280 Meat just melts in your mouth. These burgers are so simple to make but pack on a ton of flavor. The black beans add a bit of protein and fiber to them also. I put some tomato, spinach, goat cheese, and avocado on my burger but regardless of how you make yours, I can guarantee you'll love this recipe. Enjoy!

1 lb. ground beef (I used 5280 Meat – 85% lean ground beef)

¼ cup cooked black beans, mashed

¼ cup onion, finely chopped

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

1 whole egg

3 tablespoons wheat germ

2 teaspoons garlic powder

1 teaspoon ground pepper

Optional: 1 tablespoon Flavor God Everything Seasoning

Method

3. Evenly divide meat mixture into 4 sections and, using your hands, form each section into a burger patty.
