Directions

Blend black beans and jalapeno pepper in a food processor until the beans are completely pureed; transfer to a large mixing bowl.
Mix breadcrumbs, red bell pepper, onion, eggs, cumin, chili powder, garlic, liquid smoke flavoring, and ranch dressing mix into the black bean mixture until evenly combined.
Chill mixture in freezer until firm enough to shape into patties, about 1 hour.
Divide mixture into 8 portions; shape into patties.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; cook burgers in hot oil until cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.
Top burgers with smoked Gouda cheese to serve.

"WOW! Delicious. Didn't mince the jalapeno, just de-stemmed one and threw it into the food processor whole with the beans. Took substantially longer to cook until no longer a mushy mess, but that's ..." See morenot a big deal. Used yellow pepper because that's what I had on hand. Will most definitely make again."
