I love all sorts of bean dishes. They are my favorite food on earth and as a result, I have countless bean recipes. I've never eaten bean patties before though, so a couple of weeks ago I made Black Bean patties for dinner and they were delicious, nutritious and versatile!
We all loved these patties. Make these for your vegetarian friends or family members, they are going to love them. I served them with rice and vegetables on the side, but if you prefer, you can make some vegetarian burgers with them.
Buen provecho!

I wish I'd come by earlier to and seen this - my sister, who is vegetarian, was visiting this weekend and it would've been wonderful to make her a black bean burger on the grill! But black beans are also my husband's favorite (he loves them in feijoada), so he and I will definitely enjoy them!

I love beans myself. I would these patties as alternative to traditional meat patties. If I recall, your husband is a vegetarian and no doubt enjoyed these patties too.
