Recipe: Black Bean Burger Bombs

Black bean burger bombs are a take on my black bean burgers. This time, however, we stuff them into onions and cook them over the campfire! They’re going to be super good and full of flavour. I made them ahead of time then put them in the freezer – that way, they help keep the other foods in the cooler cold. Then, in the evening, after we’ve set up our campsite, just in time for dinner, they’ll be unthawed a bit and ready for the fire. Time to get cooking!

Ingredients

• 2 cups of black beans
• 3/4 cup of cooked brown rice
• 1/4 cup diced red pepper
• 3/4 cup of diced red onion
• 2 cloves of garlic, chopped
• 1 teaspoon of cumin and chili powder
• 3/4 cup of corn
• 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil
• 1/4 cup of cilantro
• 2 whole white onions

One – gather all of your ingredients.

Two – add the 1/2 the oil into a warm pan. Heat the oil and then add in the onion, peppers, garlic, cumin, and chili powder. Cook for about 2 minutes – and keep stirring.

Three – add the rice and the beans. Cook for 5 more minutes.

Four – cut open the onions. I found it best to run them under water so they separate easier.

Five – move the cooked beans to a bowl. Let cool for about 4 minutes.

Six – add in the corn and cilantro. Mash.

Seven – stuff the onion with the black bean burger mix.

Eight – wrap in foil and cook for about 15-20 minutes in the campfire.

That’s it, that’s all! Talk about a good meal. The best part is you can make them ahead of time. We love camping and I’ll admit my cooking skills are at a bit of a disadvantage when we’re out and about in our Boler. Prepping meals ahead of time is the best way to go. Happy Monday – thanks for visiting. See you again soon.
