On the grill? In the oven? On the stovetop? It's chef's choice!
They’re everything you want in a veggie burger — nutritious, tasty and quick to whip up. These patties are packed with fiber and protein from the black beans and oats, while green onions, garlic, cilantro and tomatoes with chilies bring the vibrant flavor. Throw them on the grill, bake them in the oven or “fry” them in a non-stick pan for an easy, meat-free main dish.
