Vegan MoFo Day 3 - black bean burgers

I am home from our road trip to drop Bri off at college and then make our way home.  We stopped to attend two surprise parties and visit with my in-laws.  All in all it was an excellent weekend but it’s good to be home and I’m so excited to work on my menus for the next few days.  I’m having a surgery tomorrow so I’m going to try to get ahead of my posts.  I will schedule my posts like I did for Sunday’s and Monday’s posts. 

David asked me to make my black bean burgers as part of one of these posts.  So here it is.  They are simple but oh so yummy.

Black Bean Burgers

2 cans black beans drained and rinsed

1 tsp. garlic powder

1 tsp. onion powder

½ tsp. sea salt

¼ tsp. ground pepper

2 tablespoons flour

Put one can of drained & rinsed black beans in a big bowl and mash with a potato masher or a fork.  Stir in other can of whole beans (drained & rinsed), spices and flour.  Mix until combined.  Make into patties or as my son likes them into slider size!  Fry in a frying pan until browned on both sides and heated through over medium heat – about 3 – 5 minutes a side. 

Serve with whatever toppings you like.  We like tomato, onion, pickles and avocado slices.  Yum!

We freeze any extras if we have them.
