Black Bean Burgers
Vegetarian cooking can get a bad rap. For those who aren’t regularly preparing meals without meat I think the 1970s, macrame plant holder beside the Moosewood cookbook halo still lingers. In reality, vegetarians have long since had a total makeover. There wouldn’t be books called Skinny Bitch in the Kitch if they hadn’t. Seriously, Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin’s recipes are great! Even though I’m committed to cooking a few meatless meals each week I do tend to think of them as the most virtuous dishes I’m going to feed my family. But what about fun stuff? Like burgers. I love them. So, so much. I’m the person who’d rather have a burger than a steak at a barbecue. I like the idea of a veggie burger but so often I find they taste of seasoning rather than beans or veggies and certainly not like meat. I love this black bean version. They’re satisfyingly savoury but the black beans really come through. Zesty rather than spicy, they’ve got a Latin bent. My kids are going through a stage where their spice threshold is extremely low. But these were winners with everyone. Plus, they come together quickly. And they’re fun, damn it.

Well it happened. We’re back to school. Sigh. I was really resisting it the past couple weeks. Not sure why I even bother, it’s not like I can keep it
