A French Twist to a California Classic

A few days ago I made and froze black bean burgers along with my fajita salad recipe.  Tonight, I decided to make one of my favorite French culinary staples, and top the black bean burger with it.  There is nothing more delicious then a mushroom, onion reduction in a sweet cream sherry.  This tasty treat combines this delicious reduction with the traditional California  cuisine of Black Bean Burger topped with Avocado. I found this to be more tasty without bread,  which is a tastier, low cal option. 

Mushroom, Onion Reduction

Yields 2 servings



Ingredients
3/4 cup Mushrooms chopped
1/2 cup Onions chopped
2 tbl. Butter
1/4 c. Cream Sherry
Salt and Pepper to taste

Melt Butter in pan on stove top at med heat.  Add onions and mushroom. Flavor  with salt and pepper. When onions and mushrooms are cooked down and onions are clear, add Sherry.  Reduce heat,, Cook for 5-10 minutes on med/low heat till sherry is absorbed into veggies. Place on top of cooked black bean burgers, top with mozzarella cheese, melt in oven or microwave.  Top burger with avocado.  Enjoy!!
