Are you looking for a hearty tasting vegan burger to eat at a BBQ this summer?
These resemble real hamburgers but are totally vegan and fabulous.
I used portobello mushrooms and black beans to give these burgers their flavor and their texture.
Have Leftovers? Make veggie burgers!
How many times do you have some leftover beans or leftover vegetables?
It's the perfect time to make a burger and freeze it!
Who said that you have to make a dozen burgers at a time. Make one or two from the leftovers you have on a regular basis. Before you know it- your freezer will have a dozen or so healthy tasty burgers just waiting for when you need one.
These are easy to make, hold together well, are gluten free, and make a great presentation.
Top the burgers with your choice of toppings-
Try sliced red onion, pickled red onion , caramelized onions, corn salsa, a thick slice of summer tomato , coleslaw, etc,
Your favorite topping can take these burgers from good to sensational!

I was just talking about making some black bean burgers the other day. This sounds like the perfect recipe to try. Yummy!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice veggie burger for the winter months! I make black bean burgers regularly, but I've never added mushrooms or bread crumbs. I'll have to try them, and I'll look forward to reading more of your gluten-free recipes.
ReplyDeleteThose black bean burgers sound incredible, and love that they're gluten-free, especially considering I'm always at a loss when it comes to what to make for gluren-free friends. Nicely done!!
ReplyDeleteYummy! Love black beans. Please link this to Sunday Supper Stumble when you can. http://notyourordinaryrecipes.blogspot.com/2011/09/sunday-supper-stumble.html

Hi Judee! Thank you so much for sharing these delicious looking burgers at Savvy HomeMade Monday! I love portobellos and have NEVER tried black beans in burgers. These sound scrumptious!
ReplyDeleteThese burgers look wonderful Judee! I like how you marinated the mushrooms in balsamic - that would give a lovely flavour. These are such a nutritious recipe too, and so hearty! I've chosen this as one of my highlights for this week. Thank you for sharing this post with the Hearth and Soul hop.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a delicious alternative to burgers. I've been wanting to try making my own black bean burgers and I think this recipe looks easy enough to give it a go!
ReplyDeleteJudee, these look so good! I love portabella black bean burgers... and I love your pre-marinade and grilling of the bellas! :)
