Chipotle Black Bean Burger

My guys swore that they could go vegetarian for one night and I held them to it!
I love these burgers and do make them primarily for myself because ... I love them!

Ingredients:
2  cans black beans
1/4 red onion
2 garlic cloves
1/3 cup cilantro
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp chili powder
Ancho chili powder to taste or finely chopped chili in adobo sauce
Juice of 1/2 lime
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1 egg (when I double the recipe I still only use one egg even though  I double the breadcrumbs)
Salt and pepper to taste

Chipotle Sauce:
1 cup mayo
2 chipotle chilies in adobo sauce, chopped
1 T adobo sauce
2 tsp lime juice
salt and pepper

1. Combine mayonnaise and chipotle, set aside.
2. Dry the beans well after washing, extra moisture will keep the burgers from sticking.
3. In a medium bowl, mash beans with a fork until thick and pasty.
4. In a food processor, finely chop bell pepper, cilantro, onion, and garlic, then add oats, then eggs and spices.
5. Then stir into mashed beans.
6. Divide mixture into four patties (using slightly oiled hands helps) and place them onto a flat surface covered with wax paper. (If it’s too wet, chill the mixture 30 minutes in the refrigerator or add another tablespoon of oats)
7. Freeze at least 2 hours before cooking or keep frozen until ready to cook.
8. Heat a lightly sprayed skillet to medium heat and cook frozen burgers about 7 minutes on each side.
9. If grilling, preheat grill over medium heat, and lightly oil a sheet of aluminum foil; grill 7-8 minutes on each side or you can bake in the oven at 375° on a lightly oiled baking sheet.
