Clever Ways To Use Those Underused Items In Your Pantry
Black beans + quinoa
If you have a can of black beans and some quinoa, you can make some very satisfying black bean burgers that will offer complete protein as well as plenty of fiber. Mash up your pre-cooked canned beans in a bowl with your cooked quinoa (ratio of about three to one on beans and quinoa), add your favorite seasoning, and grill. If you need a binding agent and don’t want to use an egg, you can combine two tablespoons of water with one tablespoon of vegetable oil and two teaspoons of baking powder to replace one egg.
