Black Bean Burgers

I put this recipe up a couple months ago, but I had to put it up again with the picture...doesn't it just look oh so good, trust me, it is!! I absolutly love this recipe and the salsa and avacado just make it even better!
1 can black beans (add cumin and chili spices if you want)
1 cup (maybe a little more) crushed saltine crackers
1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup cornmeal
2 Tbs. oil
5 hamburger buns, toasted
mayo or salad dressing
mustard
tomato
avacados
salsa
Place beans in a food processor (or just mash beans with fork). Cover and process until slighlty mashed; remove from food processor. Mix beans, crackers, and egg. Shape mixture into 5 patties, each about 1/2 inch thick. coat each patty with cornmeal. Heat oil in skillet over medium heat. Cook patties in oil about 10 minutes, turning once, until crisp and thoroughly cooked on both sides. Place on toasted buns and add the extra. Can serve with carrots, fries, fruit, chips or anything you would with a regular barbecue.
