INGREDIENTS

• 1 cup chopped carrots
• 1 clove garlic, chopped
• 1 T chopped onion
• 5 oz. cooked black beans
• 5 oz. cooked pinto beans
• 5 oz. cooked red kidney beans

DIRECTIONS

Place carrots, garlic, and onion in a food processor. Blend and chop slightly. Add beans, tomatoes, scallions and herbs and process till rough chopped, but blended. Transfer mixture to a large mixing bowl and add the oats. Fold together till fully incorporated and let mixture rest for 20 minutes. Form into 2-ounce patties. Pan-fry and serve as a veggie slider.
