Steps

1

divide your beans in half... and place 1/2 cup of them, and the minced garlic, in food processor and pulse for a minute.
2

in a medium bowl.. put the remaining beans, the beans from the food processor, breadcrumbs, egg and spices and mix well.
3

divide that mixture in half... and form two round patties.
4

heat your oil in a skillet or griddle on medium high heat and then add your patties. cook them for 2 - 3 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through (remember that there is an egg in there... and you do want your "burgers" to have a nice brown crispness on the outside).
5

when patties are done... sprinkle on your cheese, turn down the heat and cover.. it should only take a minute or so for the cheese to melt.
6

get out your favorite bun (I like a multigrain thin bun)... put on your favorite condiment (I take 2 tsp of light mayo and mix it with 1 tsp dijon mustard and a pinch of paprika. .. for each burger)... top with tomatoes or lettuce or whatever you want.
7

cut in half... and enjoy... just yum!

this recipe is very easily doubled also to make 4 "burgers".
