Title: Spicy mexican bean burger
 Categories: Vegetables, August, Burgers
      Yield: 8 Servings
 
     16 oz Canned red kidney beans;
           Drained & rinsed
    1/2 sm Onion; coarsely chopped
    1/2    Green pepper; coarsely ch.
      1    Carrot, steamed; mashed
    1/8 c  Picante sauce or salsa
      1 c  Bread crumbs
    1/2 c  Flour
      1 ts Black pepper or to taste
           Dash of chili powder
 
  Mix all ingredients together. Add more flour to create a firmer
  mixture, or more salsa if mixture is too stiff. Form into balls and
  smash into patties. Bake at 450 degrees for 15-20 minutes, until
  firm, brown and done. Serve on whole wheat bun with lettuce, tomato
  and salsa. Accompany with tortilla chi and a large glass of iced tea.
  These can be grilled or pressed in those new=fangled sandwich
  presses... a lot quicker and tastier than baking. The judges
  suggested adding 1/2 teaspoon of salt to the recipe.
