Butterbean and Gruyere Burgers

Not exactly healthy, these given the amount of cheese in them. But they taste nice. Eat in moderation lol!

For 4-6 burgers you need:
1 can butterbeans, drained
1 medium onion, roughly chopped
handful chives, finely chopped
large handful grated gruyere
1 egg
salt and pepper
fresh breadcrumbs

Begin by blitzing the beans and onion in a food processor till roughly mushed. Some texture in the beans/onion is fine. Tip into a mixing bowl and add everything else aside from the breadcrumbs. Mix well. You should be left with a sticky but mostly cohesive paste. Form into burgers and coat in breadcrumbs. Place on a baking sheet and bake in a medium oven for 15-25 mins till brown and bubbly. They will fall apart a bit, don't panic. Serve with a green salad and some tomato salsa. Yummy.
