Expert Tips

Legumes are loaded with plenty of fiber--the soluble kind. Start slowly so you have time to get used to added fiber in the diet!

I made these the other night....not bad, but definitely tastes like diet food. I agree with one of the other members about the mixture being too wet to form into patties, so I had to end up adding quite a bit of bread crumbs. My husband said, "it tastes like biting into bean dip." I happen to like bean dip so I don't mind too much...they do make you very full though. I also added salt, pepper, garlic powder & onion powder into the mixture. I froze the leftover patties and buns & plan to warm these up whenever I am out of time & need supper. I probably won't make them again though.

These were Ok but not great. They didn't hold together very well and weren't very flavorful. I did add some garlic powder to it and some panko bread crumbs because the mixture was kind of runny. They didn't taste too bad but I have had better veggie bean burgers. I topped it with a slice of cheese that help give some flavor. If I made again I would have to add some soy or something because I didn't really care for the texture either.
