Perfect for those family members who don't eat meat, but are also a good to take a break from eating meat.
Place the couscous in a medium bowl. Add 1- 1/4 cups of hot tap water, cover and let sit for 15 minutes; fluff with a fork.
Meanwhile, heat 1 tbsp of oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add all but 1/4 cup of the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and thyme, sprinkle with 1 tsp cumin and 1/2 tsp salt and pepper and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
Add half the carrots (about one cup) and cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes more; remove from heat and transfer to a large bowl. Fold in the black beans, then 1/2 cp of the prepared couscous.
With wet hands, form the mixture into four 3/4 inch thick patties. Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties until browned and heated through, about 3 minutes per side.
Fold the remaining carrots, onion, tbsp oil and 1/2 tsp cumin into the couscous along wih 1/4 tsp each of salt and pepper. Serve the burgers on English Muffins and top with lettuce, sliced avocado, sliced onions and sliced tomatoes, if desired.
Serve with the couscous that was not used in the burgers.
No wrong way to eat them, top with anything you prefer.
Do not over fold.
