Sweet Potato Black Bean Burger

Even though my husband has been a vegetarian since age 6, he would always turn his nose up at any type "veggie burger". He would constantly say "Its too much like a burger.." My response would always be...

Luckily within the year he has FINALLY branched out and broadened his horizons. Since the Beyond Burger and Impossible Burger are and always will be a hard no for him, I figured you can't go wrong with these tasty burgers.


~ I love to do my grocery shopping at a few different stores. The majority of my shopping is done at Aldi. Their prices and quality are fantastic! And you can't not love the aisle of randomness. Need a new laundry basket? Barbie doll? Exercise bike? Any-who, I also go to Trader Joes and Wegmans, which is our local grocery store. And of course the random Target and Walmart run. So you will see a variety of different brands in my posts.
