Steps:
- Cut onion in half crosswise. Slice one-half into 1/4" rings; set aside. Finely chop remaining onion. Pulse chopped onion, garlic, cornmeal, 3/4 cup zucchini, 2 Tbsp. beans, and 2 Tbsp. corn in a food processor until finely chopped, 30-45 seconds.
- Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium. Add chopped onion mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture begins to soften and thicken, 3-4 minutes. Add remaining 3/4 cup zucchini and cook, stirring occasionally, until zucchini begins to soften and become translucent, 3-4 minutes more.
- Transfer mixture to a large bowl and gently mix in millet, 1/4 cup basil, 3/4 tsp. salt, 3/4 tsp. pepper, and the remaining beans and corn until well combined. Form mixture into 4 (1"-thick) patties. Cover with plastic and freeze 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine mayonnaise, lime zest, lime juice, and remaining 1/4 cup basil in a small bowl; set aside.
- Prepare a grill for medium-high heat or heat a grill pan or cast-iron skillet over medium-high; oil grate or pan. Toss reserved onion rings with 1 Tbsp. oil and remaining 1/4 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Cook onion rings until softened and lightly charred, about 5 minutes.
- Brush patties all over with oil. Cook, flipping once, until medium brown and toasted, about 7 minutes on each side; add 1 slice cheese to each during last 3 minutes of cooking. Transfer onions and burgers to a plate. Toast buns until golden brown, about 30 seconds.
- Place 1 piece lettuce on each bottom bun and top with a burger. Top with onions. Spread 1 Tbsp. basil mayonnaise on each top bun, add smashed avocado, and close sandwiches.
