Delicious. My first shot at black bean burgers and they were terrific, I put them in the fridge for a couple hours per JESSMGC's advice and they were very easy to work with. - 1/22/09

I made these black bean burgers tonight for company. I loved them! We put a little avocado and FF sour cream on top. Delish! Oh, and I let them set in the fridge for a couple of hours before grilling and I didn't have any problems with fragility. - 8/4/08
