Spicy Black Bean Burgers
So, is it fall yet? Fall means football, pumpkin spice everything, cooler weather, and TAILGATING! Perhaps my favorite part about fall is weekends at a college football game and grilling out with my favorite foods. When we prepare for a tailgate, we create a variety of recipes so that there is something for all of our guests. Black bean burgers are a crowd favorite that everyone can enjoy!
Spicy black bean burgers are a fun way to add spice to your tailgate, and you can serve them up “low carb” with romaine lettuce leaves. Keep reading for the recipe and how to host a simple tailgate with your favorite flavors!
The MorningStar Farms® Spicy Black Bean Burger Value Pack (America’s #1 Veggie Burger!) is a no brainer since it has EIGHT veggie burgers inside each package. It’s a low price for so much food! We also scored the MorningStar Farms® Veggie Dogs which are easy to grill and dress up with your favorite toppings. MorningStar Farms® products are not only for vegetarians – they are for everyone! Eat meatless once a week adds variety to our weekly meal plan, so I try to opt for these items in a pinch!
The convenience and “as is” meal solution makes it simple for busy days, and the possibilities are ENDLESS!
