Chipotle Black Bean Burger

This black bean burger is one of my favorite recipes to make when I’m craving a burger. I have been a vegetarian for over 12 years so whenever I crave a hearty burger this is my go to! It has taken me many attempts and recipe modifications to find the right one. This black bean burger recipe is so easy to make because all you need is a food processor, a little time and some patience. I love that this burger pairs well with just about any topping, I love that the chipotle gives it a spicy smoky flavor that pairs well with creamy avocado or gooey melty cheese.
