I'm not a vegetarian, but these burgers were so good that I didn't even miss the meat. The combination of flavors was perfect and the burgers were so filling. I will definitely be making these again.

I made these burgers for a party and they were a hit! Everyone loved them. I even had some meat-eaters tell me that they preferred these burgers to regular beef burgers. I will definitely be making these again.

These burgers were easy to make and they turned out great! I used a mix of black beans and pinto beans, and I added some chopped red bell pepper to the mixture. The burgers were so flavorful and moist. I will definitely be making these again.
