VegLatino Recipes for SuperBowl Sunday!

This year we are going to watch the SuperBowl because Raul @rj_c and our great friend @Julito77 have a bet going on to see who will win. Since we are related to Raul, Daniela and I will be cheering for the Giants as I am sure Julio’s wife and children will be cheering for the Patriots. You can follow all the banter by following the hashtag #PapaRebelde as well.

While we cheer on the Giants, we are going to be munching on some vegan and vegetarian friendly dishes. Below are several recipes already on the site that you can make for your families as you cheer on your favorite team.

Lately we have been fascinated with making Black Bean Burgers. I found this recipe in the Good House Keeping @GoodHouseMag Vegetarian Meals recipe book. I modified the recipe and ommitted the mayo. I incorporated salsa into the mix. You can use  vegan mayo if you wish or use regular mayo.

I have been able to get seven slider sized burgers but the recipe says it is good for 4 sandwiches. We use burger buns instead of the whole wheat pitas. Do as you like, but you won’t be disappointed with the outcome.

SouthWestern Black Bean Burgers

Recipe as written in the @GoodHouseMag Vegetarian Meals.

Prep 10 minutes

Cook: 6 minutes

1 can of Black Beans rinsed and drained

2 tablespoons of light mayonnaise

1/4 cup packed fresh cilantro leaves, chopped

1 tablespoon plain dried bread crumbs

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauce

nonstick cooking spray

1 cup loosely packed sliced lettuce

4 mini (4-inch) whole wheat pitas, warmed

1/2 cup mild salsa (for topping)

1. In a large bowl, mash beans with mayonnaise until almost smooth. Stir in cilantro, bread crumbs, cumin, and pepper sauce until combined. With lightly floured hands, shape bean mixture into four 3-inch round patties. Spray both sides of each patty lightly with nonstick cooking spray.

2. Heat 10- inch skillet over medium heat until hot. Add patties and cook until lightly browned about 3 minutes. With pancake turner, turn patties ove and cook until heated through, 3 minutes longer.

3. Arrange lettuce on pitas; top with burgers then salsa.

    Yum! Looks good. Also, the old-fashioned onion rings have become a rainy day staple at our house!

    Thanks for stopping by Sandra! I put bbq sauce on the mushrooms and onions on top of the black bean burgers. We came across another recipe to deep fry green olives.
