Serves 4

Burgers:
2 cans (about 15 oz each) red kidney beans, rinsed
1/2 cup dry plain bread crumbs
1/3 cup minced scallions
1 large egg
1 Tbsp lite soy sauce
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 Tbsp oil
Sauce:
1/4 cup light mayonnaise
1 Tbsp prepared white horseradish
1 Tbsp minced scallion
1 teaspoon lite soy sauce
4 hamburger buns
lettuce
sliced tomato
cucumber slices

Mash beans in a medium bowl with a potato masher or fork. Stir in remaining burger ingredients until well blended. Form into 4 patties.

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook patties 3 to 4 minutes per side until heated through and crusty and internal temperature registers 160 F on an instant-read thermometer inserted from side into middle.

Mix sauce ingredients in a small bowl.

Serve the burgers on buns with lettuce, tomato and cucumbers and the sauce.
