Almond and Black Bean Burgers with Carrot Slaw
Lunch and Dinner Main, Lunchbox
These almond and black bean burgers are perfect for the BBQ. If your not a fan of your typical burger or want a change, these smoky bean burgers are so tasty and feel like the real deal.
This dish is packed with Vitamin E from the Almonds and carrot slaw, which is super good for you hair, skin & nails. Black beans are also amazing. They are loaded with protein and fibre, and have a great texture to them.
It’s such a versatile meal, which will be the envy at any summer party.
