Excellent Veggie Burgers That Will Make You Lick Your Plate Clean

Text: Black bean burgers and a veggie burger on a bed of spinach

Why I Love These Veggie Burgers


When I created my excellent veggie burgers recipe I wanted a burger that wouldn't fall apart. I've grown used to buying black bean burgers from the freezer section but wanted to make my own. These patties hold together beautifully, are full of flavor, and can be frozen.


In addition to the above, having the ability to add my own toppings to the burger is awesome. My black bean burger patties pair great with mayo, mustard, and ketchup. I don't usually eat hamburger buns, and these are great on lettuce leaf buns, tortillas, or with no bun at all!

Freezing Excellent Veggie Burgers


If you make too many black bean burgers, no need to worry! Simply allow the patties to cool and place in the freezer.


I recommend freezing with parchment paper in between each layer of patties. As well as storing in either a freezer zip lock bag or using a vacuum sealer.


Using Frozen Black Bean Burgers


When you are ready to use the patties, place them on a microwave-safe plate and microwave. Microwaving for 3 minutes, and flipping halfway works well for me. Touch the burger, and if it's not quite warm enough, microwave in 15-30-second intervals until they are warm.


Serve with your favorite toppings. I like ketchup, mayo & mustard on mine, yours can be uniquely yours by making it your own. When coupled with cheese I get a yummy cheeseburger, I'm sure these burgers would be great with pickles & onions as well. Last time I made these I served them on a tortilla under a bed of spinach. What a great way to get my veggies in for the day.
