I’ve been asked to share more plant based meals, and this is a one of my original “Reboot” recipes. One of the benefits of the doing the Reboot is that you get access to new + exclusive recipes that are not on my website yet! Speaking of which, I’m launching a Mini Holiday Real Food Reboot due to popular demand starting on Monday, December 9th for those of you interested in cleansing in between the holidays.

Author: Little Adapts By Jax
Serves: 12
Ingredients
- 2 large sweet potatoes
- 1 cup canned unsalted black beans (rinsed and drained)
- 1½ cups cooked brown rice
- ½ cup finely chopped walnuts
- ½ cup finely chopped white onion
- 1 clove minced garlic
- 1 cup finely diced celery
- 1 cup baby kale
- 2½ tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Peel sweet potato and dice into cubes. Bake on a cookie sheet naked for about 35 minutes (flipping over in between). You want the sweet potato soft so you can easily blend it. Once done, turn the oven down to 375 degrees F.
- While potatoes bake, cook brown rice according to box.
- Place all ingredients into the food processor or Vitamix. Make sure not to over blend as you don’t want it creamy, but rather smooth with tiny chunks for texture.
- Roll into patties and place them onto a baking sheet that is covered in a sheet of parchment paper (so they don’t stick).
- Bake for about 35 minutes and flipping them at about halfway through. Take out of the oven and cool for 10 minutes before eating before serving them on a butterhead lettuce bun, served with sides or over a bed of greens, avocado, red onion, and tomatoes.
Throw these burgers over some greens with pickles + tomatoes with a little bit of mustard + ketchup and enjoy!
With Health + Happiness Always,
