Black Bean Veggie Burgers

Costco has a chipotle black bean burger that I love, so I found a basic recipe and tweaked it to meet our tastes. I really enjoy these burgers. They have just enough kick to keep them interesting.

Love the flavor of these burgers. I did have a problem with them falling apart while cooking and then when I tried them. I mixed these up a couple weeks ago and put them in the freeze and just got around to cooking them today. Maybe they would have held together better if I had cooked them at the time I mixed them up. Anyway, I will make another batch just because the flavor is what I'm looking for and I'll play around with getting them to hold together. Thanks for sharing the recipe.Reply

I was so excited to read your description, as I have bean trying out bean burger recipes searching for a Costco bean burger copycat! I'm such a fan of the super easy 'n' tasty Costco black bean burgers, but they are so loaded with salt that I wanted to find an alternative recipe that was healthier. This was perfect! I grilled them in my George Foreman and made many thinner patties (instead of four BIG ones - we're talking really big) to get them cooked through. Made them for myself and my mom (who's also a Costco bean burger lover) and she said they were easily as good (if not better) than Costco's and that this was definitely a "five star recipe." Thanks so much!2Reply
