Step 1
Drain and rinse the 1 can black beans, then mash them in a bowl with a fork until mostly smooth but still chunky.
Step 2
Add the 0.5 cup breadcrumbs and 1 egg to the beans, season with salt and pepper, and mix until combined.
Step 3
Form the mixture into 2 patties. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Step 4
Cook the patties until browned and firm, about 4-5 minutes per side. Set aside.
Step 5
Slice the 1 avocado, 0.5 cucumber, 1 tomato, and 0.5 red bell pepper into thin rounds.
Step 6
Toast the 2 buns in the same skillet until golden, about 1 minute.
Step 7
Spread the avocado slices on the bottom buns, then add the patties, cucumber, tomato, and bell pepper. Top with the other bun half and serve.
Step 8
Optional: add lettuce, onion, or a squeeze of lime for extra freshness.
