<p>Savor the bold and fiery delight of our spicy veggie burgers, meticulously crafted with a hearty blend of black beans, vibrant red bell pepper, savory onion, textured breadcrumbs, crunchy walnuts, and a tantalizing infusion of McCormick® Grill Mates® Chipotle & Roasted Garlic Seasoning. These delectable patties, expertly pan-fried to perfection, are crowned with the melty richness of Sargento® Pepper Jack Cheese and nestled within a whole wheat bun. The ensemble reaches new heights with the crisp freshness of lettuce, succulent tomato slices, zesty red onion, creamy avocado, and a finishing touch of tangy brilliance from our French’s® Dijon Mustard with chardonnay and lime mayo.</p>

Directions
- For Veggie Burgers: Set aside 1 cup of black beans. Combine remaining black beans(about 1 ½ cups) and next five ingredients in a food processor. Cover and process until smooth. Transfer mixture to a bowl. Add reserved cup of black beans and stir until well blended. Form into four equal patties(about 6 oz. each). Set aside.
- For Mustard Lime Mayo: In a small bowl, combine mayo, Dijon mustard and lime zest. Stir until well blended. Set aside.
- Prepare buns by evenly spreading mustard lime mayo on the cut side of each bun top. Place one piece of lettuce and 2 tomato slices on the bun bottoms. Set aside.
- Pre-heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add avocado oil. Place 2 veggie burgers in the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crisp on the bottom. Gently flip burgers. Cook for 1-2 minutes. Add 2 slices of cheese to each burger. Cook an additional minute or until cheese begins to melt. Transfer to a plate. Keep warm while cooking remaining burgers.
- Transfer veggie burgers to bun bottoms over lettuce and tomato. Top with red onion rings, avocado slices and bun tops. Serve
