Okay, okay! I'm not even going to try and lie I  only attempted this recipe out of desperation.

So the story goes, it was about an hour before time for me to start cooking dinner and I hadn't remembered to thaw any meat out. Usually my second son, who doesn't live at home, but eats dinner at my house pretty much every night, has called me by at least 0900 to ask me what we're having for supper. His daily call works as a reminder for me to take make sure something is thawed out for dinner, but on this day he hadn't called.

I go to the freezer to see what I can possibly quick thaw in the microwave, which I really hate to do because I think it messes with the texture of the meat, but desperate times people desperate times!

Low and behold there isn't Jack Shit in the freezer! Oh, Yeah! Poppy went back to night shift and Baby Bear has started working, plus, we only have one car and since I've been elected the designated chauffeur I hadn't been to the store yet-CRAP! Now what?

To the can goods...corn, black beans, black beans, green beans, black beans, peas, black beans, tomato paste, black beans...

I wonder if there is something I can do with BLACK BEANS I think I've read somewhere about a veggie burger made with these beans...next...GOOGLE IT!

Yep, Black Bean Veggie Burger, so I looked for the one that was easy and low in calories and this is what I came up with and it was a BIG SUCCESS! 

If you want to know the truth the boys didn't even realize at first that it wasn't meat, lol. 

Give it a try and let me know what you think! I hope your family enjoys it as much as mine ;)
