Preparation

01In a small bowl, mix all of the seasonings and set aside.

02In a large bowl, use a fork to mash the beans until they are broken down. Leave some texture so they aren't a smooth paste.

03Add the bell peppers, onion, jalapeno, habanero, and garlic to the bowl with the beans.

04Mix in your seasonings and breadcrumbs to the bean mixture. Add your desired amount of salt and black pepper. Then add in the cream cheese and mix well.

05Once everything is combined, make 6 large burger patties.

06To cook, add some oil to a pan over medium to high heat and cook the patty on both sides until they are browned. This will take about 7-10 minutes for all the patties. Add the pepper jack cheese directly onto the burger as it's cooked.

07Assemble by adding all toppings that you desire to your burger and enjoy!
