     I use this same recipe from allrecipes and it's GREAT! I just put everything in a food processor until it's a mush, form the patties and bake them. They hold together just fine for me when I make them this way and they taste great! - 1/24/09

     I made these with beans with no added salt....and used Ezekiel bread for the bread crumbs....still very good and a lot less salt! - 9/21/11

     This is fabulous! Stuck together perfectly and even my 5 year old loved it. Very satisfying. - 2/21/09

     Reviews are encouraging. As a meat eater, I will try these. Seems to be better than store bought. - 6/12/21

     I combined this recipe with a veggie burger recipe and turned out great! - 12/11/18

     I fixed this recipe today for lunch. It tasted okay. I think if I make it again I won't put as much cumin in the mixture. It seemed too strong. It was a good veggie dish. - 9/25/17

     Made this for Meatless Monday's dinner. Used orange bell pepper in place of green. Added in a bit of shredded carrots. - 8/28/17

     I subbed grilled mushrooms and onions for the pepper. I used oatmeal in place of bread crumbs. Omitted the egg and hot sauce. Added a taste of ketchup (was thinking tom sauce, ketchup was what i had). Very good burger! - 9/19/14

     I made these tonight and they were really good! I did not have bell pepper on hand but I substituted one carrot chopped. I used a mini chopper to speed up the process. If it falls apart a little so what? Grab a fork and dig in. Will make again! - 7/26/14

     I just tried this from allrecipies and it was not as amazing as the ones I have had at vegan restaurants but it was pretty darn good. Will definitely make again. - 9/4/13

     This is a great recipe! I did cut down on the amount of the spices. I also added 1/2 c. of whole kernel corn, drained to the recipe. I did not have any trouble with the patties either, they formed nicely and stayed together. I did drain everything well. Nice Healthy Meal! - 12/13/11

     This was really good and thanks for typing it all in so I didn't have to since I had this recipe from Allrecipes! - 7/1/11

     Very good! - 6/19/11

     Oh, YUM!
    I mucked a little with this, as we're not big fans of hot foods, Used a tiny bit of cayenne & some paprika instead of chili powder, and Worcestershire instead of hot sauce. - 3/18/11

     This recipe is perfect. I do add a little salt and pepper though. - 2/3/11

     For the smell! Oh, they smell so good! Now off to grill them! I'll post how they tasted! I used fresh cooked black beans and had to add more bread crumbs so they would stay together. - 9/6/10

     This was pretty good, and I am not a huge fan of black beans! My husband wanted to try something like this, and I thought I would give it a try. This was an excellent first try recipe! I used Worch. Sauce instead of hot sauce and it worked pretty good. We really enjoyed this! - 8/11/10

     The burger did not stick well together, but tasted good. I think i'll try and pat dry the beans as much as possible. - 3/15/10

     I made these tonight and it was excellent. Left overs in the fridge for the res of the week! YEAH - 2/26/10

     These had Great flavor but I was not pleased with the texture at all. I probably wont be making them again u nless I can think of a way to make them less mushy. - 1/6/10

     I made these tonight, and they were really good! I didn't use the egg, and they still stuck together perfectly. I had them with some jalapeno poppers (recipe also found on spark), and it was a nice dinner that felt bad for me, but really wasn't. YAY! - 10/27/09

     This is awesome! Mine didn't stick together too well (I used a magic bullet in lieu of a food processor and the onions made it super watery so i think this was the problem) but i threw it on some couscous and topped it with avocado, goat cheese and salsa. it was outstanding! yum. - 10/6/09

     We cooked them in a skillet but probably would have been better baked. Otherwise delicious! :-) - 7/18/09
