Prep
- Bell peppers / Red Onions (for burgers and salsa) / Green beans / Lemons - Prep as directed. (Can be done up to 3 days ahead)
- Make burger patties - Rinse and drain black beans. In a large bowl, mash black beans (you can use a fork, but the most efficient way to do this is with your hands!). Combine onions, black beans, panko, eggs, chili powder, paprika, coriander, cumin, salt, pepper and tomato paste, and mash until it all begins to stick together. If needed, add a bit more tomato paste until the mixture is sticky enough to form patties. Wet your hands and divide mixture into patties for the number of people being served. Place on parchment-lined plate or sheet pan to refrigerate. Cover with plastic wrap. (Can be done up to 3 days ahead)
- Make salsa - Cube mangos. Combine bell peppers, red onions, mangos and vinegar.
