16 oz Canned red kidney beans;
Drained & rinsed 1/2 sm Onion; coarsely chopped
1/2 Green pepper; coarsely ch.
1 Carrot, steamed; mashed
1/8 c Picante sauce or salsa
1 c Bread crumbs
1/2 c Flour
1 ts Black pepper or to taste
Dash of chili powder Mix all ingredients together. Add more flour to create a firmer mixture, or more salsa if mixture is too stiff. Form into balls and smash into patties. Bake at 450 degrees for 15-20 minutes, until firm, brown and done. Serve on whole wheat bun with lettuce, tomato and salsa. Accompany with tortilla chi and a large glass of iced tea. These can be grilled or pressed in those new=fangled sandwich presses… a lot quicker and tastier than baking. The judges suggested adding 1/2 teaspoon of salt to the recipe.
