Realizing we are eating too much animal fat, we decided to take action. Our reason is based on health concerns only. We are not becoming Vegans nor or we becoming total Vegetarians. We will continue to eat fish and seafood as well as eggs. This action is not set in concrete, so while we will post mostly meatless meals, you may find meat related products at times.
Use any beans you have available. I use whatever beans I cook for the week.
These burgers are great for any meal as well as snacks.
Mais C’est Bon! Enjoy!!
- 1 ½ cup beans, mashed

Mash beans leaving a few beans whole. Dice vegetables. Combine beans, egg, vegetables and seasonings until well blended. Make 6-8 bean patties. Heat olive oil in heavy skillet to medium. Cook patties on medium heat, 4-5 minutes on each side.
I used Lady Cream Peas yet any bean could be used. The vegetables I used were ones I had in the refrigerator. Use any vegetables you may have or like. I added a pinch of salt.
