Boyfriend-Approved Spicy Black Bean Burgers

Apple Cake

This delectable Apple Cake has a slightly crunchy crust and a soft moist center that is loaded with chunks of sweet apple and pecans. It is perfectly spiced with cinnamon, ground cloves and nutmeg. It is lightly drizzled with an easy four ingredient caramel sauce. I make this cake several times each fall for bake sales, potlucks and family and friend get-togethers.

Easy Ratatouille

This easy ratatouille recipe is a classic summer French stew filled with vibrant, colourful and nutritious vegetables: tomatoes, zucchini and eggplant. It is a low-carb, gluten-free and vegan dish that can be made in one pan and served atop greens or grains, as a side to a main entrée, or all on its own.

They were so sticky :/.. it was really hard frying them. However, the flavor was great. My boyfriend said he enjoyed it.

These were good, a healthy opton. I agree with inneranomaly’s husband that they were a little pasty inside, but the flavor was excellent. Loved the jalapeno, but I’m a spice girl. Not a “Spice Girl.” You know what I mean

Loved these! Left out the jalapeno because it probably would’ve been a little too spicy for us, then served them with avocado and then a mixture of mayo and a little of the Sriracha chili sauce (sounds weird, but we use that combo in sushi sometimes). Delicious! I ended up making only 4 patties to fit my kaiser rolls, but they were probably a little too big because they wanted to fall apart. Even so, they still managed to hold together pretty well. These had a really great consistency, so I don’t think I’ll ever try one of the black bean recipes that call for cooked rice — too much work!

I love these, but my husband wasn’t crazy about them at all (the reason I only give it 4 stars instead of 5). Husband said it tasted like he was eating bean dip because of the texture and said he’d rather eat black bean salad if he’s going to eat that many black beans. I thought they were great, but I won’t be able to serve them for dinner due to hubby’s lack of enthusiasm. I have made them again to use for my lunches though! I’m not able to form them into patties (could be b/c I sub one egg for the flax/water?) but I cook in a skillet and spoon the mixture directly into the skillet, forming it into a patty as it cooks.

LOVE this! My husband who has is of the opinion that all meals should contain meat was shocked at how tasty this is. What is even better is this is such an easy, delicious way to get in some vegetables. Will be adding this to my recipe book for sure!
