- Add the mushrooms, the remaining black beans, the remaining onion and the cheese. Pulse a dozen times just to slightly chop and mix everything together.
- Cover and place mixture in fridge for at least 1 hour.
- Make into 1/2 inch patties, In a cast iron skillet cook the patties over medium-low heat for 5-6 minutes on each side or until they become golden brown.
- Serve on lettuce or bun and top just like you would a hamburger and enjoy!!
