A fellow FoodBuzz member had posted a recipe for Southwest Pinto Bean Burgers with a Chipotle Mayonnaise, that I just had to try. I overall really enjoy the black bean burgers that I make on an occasion, but it was time to try something new. This recipe used two of my favorite ingredients, Chipotle Peppers in Adobo and Cilantro.
I took her advice and mashed the beans a bit before adding the remainder of the ingredients, in a hope they will hold together better. Unfortunately, the burgers were still a bit loose and could handle being flipped. However, the burgers had a great taste and this is definitely a good start to a new veggie burger recipe.
The chipotle mayonnaise was a bit disappointing in the recipe, but that is probably due to the fact I really enjoy the chipotle mayonnaise I used with the recipe: Chipotle Chicken Thighs. I would use this mayonnaise in the future with these burgers instead. However, the one with this recipe is far simpler to make.
Here is a picture of the burgers that I made, along side with some brisket, baked beans, and a corn dish:
Looking for something different to grill up, give these a shot, it is definitely worth it.
