1

Cook the spaghetti

Grab a large pot and fill it with water. Bring it to a boil and add a pinch of salt. Cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions, but make sure to slightly undercook it. We want the spaghetti to hold its shape when combined with the other ingredients.

2

Prepare the spaghetti burger mixture

While the spaghetti is cooking, let's prepare the burger mixture. In a mixing bowl, combine cooked and drained black beans, breadcrumbs, chopped onions, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix all these ingredients until well combined.

3

Form the spaghetti buns

Once the spaghetti is al dente, drain it and rinse it briefly with cold water. This helps stop the cooking process. Grab a handful of spaghetti and press it tightly into a round cookie cutter or a ramekin to form a bun shape. Repeat this step to make more spaghetti buns.

4

Cook the spaghetti buns

Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Carefully transfer the spaghetti buns to the pan and cook them on each side for about 2-3 minutes, until they become crispy and golden brown. Set them aside once cooked.

5

Assemble your spaghetti burger

Now it's time to bring all the delicious elements together! Take one spaghetti bun, spread a generous amount of marinara sauce on top, add a few slices of fresh mozzarella cheese, and a handful of baby spinach. Finally, place another spaghetti bun on top to complete your burger. Repeat this step to make more spaghetti burgers.
