 Gave them some more punch. i have a 3-3/4 inch ring that is a little mover 1/4 inch that I oil up and put my mix in. I push it out of the ring and have professional looking burgers with sharp edges. On the wedges I used some herbs like dill and Sage. I put the herbs in a bowl with the oil and use a brush to coat the wedges. I am telling you this better than the other recipe I had. Thanks.
Yum! We love the idea of adding a little bit of heat to these black bean burgers with a dash of hot sauce! Love that you use a ring to help shape your burgers, I love using the ring of a mason jar, they look professional + make it so easy!
We can’t wait to share the rest of our recipes with you!
First, many thanks for addressing everyone’s dinner time dilemna!
Even though I am a professional cook, at home I stay clear of recipes that have more than 10 ingredients.
Great quick answer to making a terrific burger. I would skip the bun and use 1/3 cup gluten free flour or oats to hold it together. I’d like to add a steamed vegetable or raw carrots and cucumbers in lieu of the potatoes. Filling, satisfying and non-inflammatory.
We can definitely tell you’re a professional cook, as we love your suggestions! While we think our recipes are pretty great, it’s all about inspiring others to create simple + easy meals that they love, while being healthy + nutritious! Adding raw carrots + cucumber…yum!! We can’t wait to hear from others about how they make our black bean burger recipe!
Perfect! Living in California, I put everything on the grill outside! If you’re worried about them falling through, you can put them on a veggie grilling tray, it works like a charm!
I’ll definitely keep the extras in the freezer for spontaneous grilling!
Thanks for the tip + happy grillin’!
I am a green smoothie addict but also over time I no longer eat processed food so to be really healthy ditch the bread and eat your burger on top a salad it is wonderful and no guilt. The less processed food you eat the better you will feel.
It’s all about what works for you! I love this recipe on top of a big green salad, or I make sweet potato buns on the stove top by combining grated sweet potato, herbs, and an egg! It’s fun to get creative!
And it tastes delicious too, Alaa!
Yay! We love that you have everything already in your pantry! That was our goal, simple healthy recipes that don’t require anything too fancy or too labor intensive!
For me, a fruit topping is a bit of a challenge to the tastebuds. What about a fresh salsa: tomatoes, onions, cilantro and lemon juice.
Yum! Salsa sounds like the perfect addition to our black bean burger recipe!
Using a measuring cup is easy when you know that a US cup is 8 fluid oz. I just measure accordingly.
I’d rather not pack out recipes with commercial starchy gluten free flour or bread. It would be really useful to have a list of whole food alternatives which work well in the recipe.
You have set the bar very high with your 21 Days recipes. I’m really looking forward to 4 weeks of clean eating.
Looking to leave the bun behind? This recipe is perfect on top of a delicious green salad or I love swapping out a bun for sweet potato!
I am definitely trying this in the next day or two. I have wished for you guys to make a cookbook ever since I bought the FS21! This makes me happy!
Yay!  We can’t wait to share the rest of our meal plan with you!!
Soooooo good! I’ve never liked veggie burgers before, but my husband and I both thought these were amazing! I have already pre-ordered the cookbook, and I can hardly wait!
Rawesome! We’re so excited to hear you loved this recipe, + we can’t wait to share more recipes from our “Let’s Eat” meal plan with you. Keep an eye out for more details soon!
This was easy to make. Fresh and delicious, I did add crushed red peppers and topped it with banana peppers – I like a “little” kick.
YAY! We’re so excited to hear you enjoyed our Black Bean Burger recipe. Love the idea of adding a little spice with crushed red peppers! And topping with banana peppers, Mmmm….
Yum! Almond flour is a great substitute for breadcrumbs in this recipe. Love your idea for serving our Black Bean Burger in a veggie wrap!
 I need this! Just wondering if the majority of the recipes will be vegan or adaptable to vegan? I want to stay away from cheese, meat and gluten for now…THANK YOU so much!!!!!!
Great question! Some of our recipes include dairy, but you can easily adjust our recipes to meet your dietary needs! I’ve continued a vegan diet following our FreshStart21 cleanse, and have enjoyed many of our Lets Eat meals!
Going to try these burgers minus the buns as we’re eating low carb. Sounds wonderful and easy too. Can’t wait for the cookbook!
Our Black Bean Burger recipe is perfect on top of a fresh green salad or sweet potato makes the perfect bun alternative!
These look great. I’ve used a far simpler black bean recipe (three ingredients) that I really like.
Personally, I’m going to serve the burgers with the potato wedges, but I’ll omit the buns. Especially since there’s bread crumbs in the mix. Too much starch for me. But yum all the way. Can hardly wait for the book.
Whoops, great eye! Definitely a misprint on our end, we love to top these burgers with tomato, onions, lettuce, + a slice of cheese. Too much starch? Substitute gluten-free bread crumbs or almond meal for the regular bread crumbs, and serve on a gluten-free bun or bed of leafy greens.
Yummy! I’m wondering if you are planning on including and combining your weekly GS recipe lists along with the lists for this meal plan? Will the same ingredients be getting used in multiple recipes? Like will cilantro, which I have to buy in a big bunch, be included in a smoothie recipe or other dinner recipe to minimize wasting ingredients?
Great question! We hate waste, especially delicious herbs + leafy greens, so we’ve worked to organize our meal plan to ensure you use each item in our weekly shopping list.
I live in the UK also and have no problems with using cup measurements!! I love the Black Bean Burger recipe. I do sweet potato wedges all the time. I personally cannot wait for the cookbook.
Karen if you live in London, checkout the 99p shops or Pound land, they sell the measuring cups/spoons on a ring, they come in a nice bright orange. Honest it really isn’t that difficult to follow the recipes using a cup measurement. Thats what I used when doing the FS21 programme.
Thank you so much for sharing! We love our international SGS tribe, + love hearing ways to make the conversions easier!
loved the Black Bean Burger recipe and wedges, as much as I also love the smoothies.
However as I live in the UK,we don’t use the Cup measurements and I find them a nightmare and very off putting if there’s no UK conversion.
Please print your recipes in UK versions – I wouldn’t buy a Cup based recipe book no matter how good the recipes looked – sorry, but would definitely buy the UK version one.
Thank you so much for reaching out + sharing your suggestion! Our upcoming book includes great conversion charts, + we will continue to look into ways to make the different measurements easier for our international SGS Tribe!
Sounds good, but gut reaction is too many ingredients for a busy, working family on a week night.
Too time consuming? Our Black Bean Burgers are perfect for prepping on the weekend + keeping in the freezer for a quick delicious + healthy week-day dinner.
This sounds delicious! I would definitely be interested in more recipes like this! I’m always looking for EASY, delicious, make-ahead recipes that are vegan or vegetarian. I will NOT eat tofu, seitan, or TVP – tried all – meat substitutes are gross! I would not be interested in the recipes if they include meat or meat substitutes…..
Then you have no worries! All of our recipes include real, whole foods! No meat substitutes in sight! We can’t wait to share more recipes with you!
I am an everyday green smoothie drinker, and your Black Bean Burger is fabulous! I also am a carnivore in moderation with my family along with wheat so had no issues with these healthy ingredients.
We added sliced Avacado to top the burger with Spinach leaves, and the Tomato, substituted oatmeal/rolled oats in place of bread crumbs. YUM!
Yum! Love the idea of adding oats + avocado to our Black Bean Burger recipe!
I love the sweet potato wedges!!
Thanks Ju! We do too!
So excited about your simple, healthy, and delicious recipes!!! I’m all in! And will no doubt enjoy my new meal tastings. Thanks again Jadah, Jen & SGS team!!!
Yay,
