Happy weekend guys!
Are you excited for all things Summer? I am! Yesterday I went with some friends and family to a rock climbing gym yesterday and I'm currently sorting through tons of footage to share later this weekend so look forward to that ;D
I definitely think these qualify as summer food. Have you ever tasted jerk flavor before? I fell in love with it a few months ago and I’ve been wanting to try more things with it since it’s so good.
These burgers have black beans and chickpeas and they make the best little platform to have to pile with all the toppings you love!
So I've gotta go edit some videos but I will see you soon. Have an awesome weekend!
Burgers:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 C) then line a baking tray with foil and spray lightly with olive oil. Combine serrano, garlic, onion, and bell pepper in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a medium skillet over medium high heat and add mixture to pan. Cook for 6 - 7 minutes until softened then add orange and lime juice, soy, and vinegar to pan. Cook until mostly evaporated then remove from heat and scrape contents back into processor. Add jerk seasoning, brown sugar, salt, and beans then pulse until nearly smooth. Scrape into a large bowl and add millet and breadcrumbs, then mix well. Form mixture into 8 patties and place on prepared tray.
Bake in oven for about 12 minutes on each side then remove from oven and allow them to cool for about 10 minutes to set up or they will fall apart.
If desired, heat 2 more tablespoons of olive oil in same skillet and cook each patty for about 1 minute per side until nice and golden brown.
Pineapple Guacamole:
Smash avocados with a fork and mix with other ingredients in a medium bowl. Cover and chill until ready to serve
Toast buns if desired and assemble burgers by placing patties on buns and topping with gaucamole, peppers, cilantro, and any other toppings you like. These are great with cheese if you aren't vegan.
ALL CONTENT IS MINE AND ORIGINAL! All of these food photos were taken with my Nikon D750 and my favorite Lens, the Nikon AF-S FX NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G. You can find out more in my INTRO POST.
