Ingredients
Patties
300g can of refried black beans, any liquid drained
1 carrot, grated
1/4 red onion, finely diced
1/3 cup wholemeal breadcrumbs
1 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp ground cumin
To Serve
1/2 cup frozen corn
1/2 lettuce, leaves separated

Method
- Prep & make patties. In a bowl combine all patty ingredients with 1/2 tsp salt. Season with pepper, mix well, then use 1/4 cup worth of mixture to shape patties, about 1.5cm thick. Allow to firm up in fridge for about 10 minutes.
- Cook patties. Heat 1 tsp oil in a non-stick fry-pan on medium heat and cook patties for 2–3 minutes each side, until golden and cooked through.
- Prep serving ingredients, if using. Return same pan to medium-high heat and stirfry corn for 2–3 minutes, until tender and golden.
- Add patties to lunches across the week for extra protein, nutrients and fibre. Alternatively, serve patties in lettuce, topped with sour cream, corn and cucumber for a tasty meal.
