-1 medium sweet potato
-1/2 cup oats
-1/2 tsp garlic powder
-1/2 tsp onion powder
-1/2 tsp pink salt
-pinch of seasoning of your choice (cumin, chipolte chilie powder, etc)


1.  Preheat oven to broil.  Line a baking sheet with foil.
2.  Wrap the sweet potato in plastic wrap and cook in the microwave for 3-7 minutes or until cooked through.  Remove plastic and let cool.
3.  Using an immersion blender or food processor, pulse oats until it turns into a fine powder.
4.  Add spices and salt to oat powder, stir to combine.
5.  Peel sweet potato (the skin should fall right off) and mash in a large bowl with the beans.
6.  Add oat & seasoning mix to potatoes and beans, combine/mash together.
7.  Scoop out equal portions and form into patties.
8.  Cook the patties for 8 minutes, then flip them and cook again for 3 minutes.*

*You'll want to watch them closely in the broiler to make sure they don't burn!
