The antioxidants, fiber, protein, and carbohydrates in legumes make a black bean burger a nutritionally powerful dinner.

A diet rich in beans can reduce your risk of several serious medical conditions and help your body to process calories more effectively. They are versatile, cholesterol free, high in fiber (15 grams per cooked cup), rich in protein (15.24 grams per cooked cup) and low in fat (less than a gram a fat per cooked cup).

If you are looking to pull back on red meat, a hearty, homemade black bean burger is a good option for Meatless Monday.
