Black Bean and Quinoa Burger

6/5/2017

0 Comments

 
Two summers ago I tried to covert to a plant-based diet.  It was a long summer.  But thankfully I had this "burger" to quash my burger cravings.  Make a batch of chipotle mayonnaise and slather it on the patty or dunk some sweet potato fries in it.  You'll forget you are  a carnivore.   

Time:  Under 30 minutes
Level:  Easy
​Servings: 4-5 Burgers
