BBQ BLACK BEAN PATTIES, GUACAMOLE, AND PLANTAIN

Today I Made:
BLACK BEAN PATTIES WITH BBQ SAUCE, PLANTAINS, GUACAMOLE, AND BROWN RICE.
Patty and BBQ recipes from THE CANDLE CAFE COOKBOOK.
I'm noticing a pattern here.
I LOVE PATTIES!!!
On a bun or without, it really doesn't matter.
Oh, and I also LOVE plantains.
Just scroll down the page and you'll understand.

This patty is made with black beans, carrots, red bell peppers, yellow pepper, cornmeal, chickpea flour, cilantro, and spices.
It's moist, but crunchy because of all the vegetables.

It's totally worth making your own homemade vegan patties.
Forget the frozen stuff.

The BBQ sauce was so easy to make and so delicious.
Canned chipotles, hot water, garlic, tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, molasses, mustard, and spices.
After making this recipe, I will never buy a store bought sauce.

The patty with the BBQ, a match made in heaven.

But wait, add some guacamole, and now you have one if the most amazing mix of flavors ever!

The plantains were especially made for my husband who loves them.

Round out the meal with some brown rice and BON APPETITE!!!

Mmmm burger patties are one of my absolute favourite meals! And black beans are my favourite bean. They look delicious! And it just so happens that I have that cookbook hiding in my cupboard (how on earth I missed this recipe I'll never know!).

Your bbq sauce sounds incredible too. Yum!
