I love all sorts of bean dishes. They are my favorite food on earth and as a result, I have countless bean recipes. I've never eaten bean patties before though, so a couple of weeks ago I made Black Bean patties for dinner and they were delicious, nutritious and versatile!
We all loved these patties. Make these for your vegetarian friends or family members, they are going to love them. I served them with rice and vegetables on the side, but if you prefer, you can make some vegetarian burgers with them.
Buen provecho!

I love beans myself. I would these patties as alternative to traditional meat patties. If I recall, your husband is a vegetarian and no doubt enjoyed these patties too.
