Salsa-Black Bean Burgers

My girlfriend made these for me for our one-month anniversary. They fell apart just a tiny bit, but it’s ok as long as our relationship doesn’t do the same thing! Because after these burgers I gotta keep this girl around! They were delicious! Spicy, good texture, filling, easy and cost-effective! For real though, I think I’m going to marry her someday.

This black bean burger is delicious. I have made it several times, and I enjoy it, but I have made a few changes. I don't like the tortilla chips in the burger, so I have replaced it with oatmeal that I have whirled a few times in my Ninja. It tastes better with the oatmeal, and it improves the nutrition of the burger. I also left out the egg and mayo, since the burger has been very wet when I try to shape it. Since I only eat one at a time, I have been wrapping them and freezing for later. They freeze very well.

It tastes gooooood :)

I debated making this as the nutrition numbers were both, WoW & YiKe! I am very glad I went ahead, they are awesome. I passed them around to my neighbors (11) who rated from 3 to 9 stars! As they were not terribly expensive to make I will try freezing leftovers next time.raf

I do not understand the rave reviews for this recipe. I made it as directed (other than cutting the recipe in half but using the whole egg). While the flavor was OK, the burger patty itself was mushy and completely broke apart when I was flipping it, transferring it to the bun, and eating it. I won't bother making this recipe again--there are better vegie burger recipes out there.

Awesome! I used Arriba brand, red hot salsa, so I only used 2 teaspoons of chili powder & 1 teaspoon of cumin. Other than that I made the recipe exactly as instructed and got 11 burgers out of it. Good thing, because they are getting gone fast.

Must try sounds easy & healthy!

I used 1 tsp Chipotle rub and 1tsp oregano in place of the Chili powder and cumin. Since salt is an ingred in the rub, I only added 1/4 tsp of salt. Burgers were very flavorful!

Omitted egg , covered in fridge several hours and they stayed together Very tasty , can also sub chilli sauce for salsa

These are delicious and if you want to make them vegan, omit the mayo and egg and just use a little olive oil or grape seed oil to help them bind together. I also like to dredge mine in a little bit of flour to make them extra crispy :)

Very yummy. They kind of fell apart but they were delicious! My kids, who are carnivores, LOVED them! served with guacamole & onion, and cheese.

Just great! Would recommend to all. PS - must remember to drain the salsa. Otherwise too wet. I also put the mixture in the fridge for 30 mins before making the burgers.

Simply perfect!

Very good burger. Easy to make, and it makes a good size burger. I used fresh salsa from the grocery store rather than jarred salsa. Recipe wasn't specific on the type of salsa. It was a little too soft and wet to be able to form a nice burger shape. Next time, and I will definitely make these again, I may just sub bread crumbs for the crushed tortilla chips and add another egg. Hopefully then they will be easier to form into patties.

my new favorite veggie burger!

Amazing recipe! My family loved this burger. Instead of serving it on a bun as suggested, I served it over Vegetarian Taco Salad.

This was seriously the best burger I've ever had.
