*Black Bean Vegan Burgers*
I have found it quite difficult to find veggie burgers that I actually like.Ive tried many prepackaged ones and I just didn’t like them. I was happy to finally make a recipe that taste yummy, was very filling, and have a crispy outside. Nom Nom. Veggie burgers are a great way to substitute eating meat. I hope you all enjoy this recipe.
