Kidney Bean Burgers

What you need:

1/2 onion
1-2 cloves garlic
1 can kidney beans (16oz I think) about 1 cup dry
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon barbeque sauce
1-2 tablespoons mustard (dijon or yellow)
1 cup breadcrumbs (I made mine from "Outrageously big and easy bread" with onion powder and olive oil)
handful of rolled oats (about 1/4 cup)
1/4 cup wheat bran
1 egg replacer (I use either Ener-G or flax egg)

What you do:

Chop onion and garlic very very fine. A food processor is your best bet. Add kidney beans and process until it is about the consistency of a "dip." Use liquid from the beans if you need to (I didn't though).
Add ketchup, mustard, and barbeque sauce. These measurements are really guesses...I really just pour and taste.
Add the breadcrumbs, wheat bran, and oats separately; mixing each well before adding the next.
Mix in the egg replacer.
Form into patties (or meatballs) and put on a cookie sheet. (I didn't grease mine, but I'm sure a little wouldn't hurt). They will be pretty "gooey."
Bake at 350 degrees F for 8-10 minutes on each side and serve.
