What do you do with left over bean patties? Eggs Beanedict.
If you are like us, there always seems to be beans and rice left even after eating leftovers. Trying to come up with a way to use the beans and rice in a creative manner, we decided on bean patties. They had a great flavor and we served them with grilled salmon. Ok, now we had two bean patties leftover. Thinking breakfast we decided to top them with fried eggs and one thing led to another. Eggs Beanedict was born and enjoyed.
