Black Bean Veggie Loaded Burgers

 

When looking up veggie burger recipes, I had a really hard time finding ones that didn’t have breadcrumbs, so I attempted to make my own!  Of course loaded them up with vegetables, and spices, which gave them so much flavor! don’t skimp on the spices it really takes it to another level! I tried pan frying them but found works best in the oven!
