Hello! I found your site yesterday, and this recipe was the maiden voyage! It turned out wonderful – taste was great (I added an additional clove of garlic, since we are garlic FIENDS in this house!), texture was moist, burger held up well together. I served it with a light dollop of mayo, and a side of roasted veggies. Everyone in my family loved it – the best part was the kids didn’t know about the beans! 🙂 Looking forward to more recipes – thank you! 🙂
This is a hamburger i would like to try
