Mexican Bean Burgers W/ Lime Yogurt & Salsa image

I am trying to push full forced with my diet to finally reach my 100lbs lost target. So, I am collecting every low fat recipe that looks good to me and this is the latest one. I found it in the April 2009 of BBC good food magazine. The recipe says that the uncooked burgers can be frozen so they would be good to make ahead and have when I need something quick but also healthy.

SPICY MEXICAN BEAN BURGER



Spicy Mexican Bean Burger image

This is an inexpensive vegetarian burger and my husband loves them. He ate one and he said they are filling, delicious and he said he wants more made when these are gone and he even said that they are better than store bought. They don't fall apart like most veggie burgers and all the ingredients are available at any grocery store.
