Make a meatless main dish that's high on flavor and fiber. Chili powder, cumin, cayenne and salsa elevate the flavor, while cereal adds crunch and fiber.

At first bite I thought it was like having chili. Used yellow peppers instead of green & skipped the salsa in place of Tader Joe's Goddess Dressing. Very surprised at the Fiber One, but will try it again in other bean burger recipes.

I did not enjoy this recipe one bit. I am very open to trying new things and there is not much out there that i do not like!! I took one bite and could hardly eat that bite. No one in my family enjoyed this in the slightest bit. I ended up having to throw every single bit of it away and making a complete new dinner b/c nobody liked it. I was highly disappointed! I had such high hopes for this recipe. :(
