Recipe: Guacamole Black Bean Burgers

Andy and I celebrated our anniversary this weekend, and we decided to keep it kind of low-key. Actually, we didn't really "decide"; we both casually forgot about it. Woops. Anyways, Andy made these awesome veggies burgers for our celebratory dinner, and they were too good not to share. Here's the scoop!

In a pan, saute bell peppers and onions until they are tender and begin to char. We used red and yellow peppers, and a red onion, but feel free to use whatever you have on hand! You'll also want to start cooking your veggie burger in another pan. We used Lite-Life brand's version of black bean burgers, but I'm also a huge fan of Morning Star's because they have a great spice to them.

After your burgers and veggies are cooked through, set them aside and prepare your guacamole. We used avocado, tomato, red onion, jalapeno, lime juice, cilantro and salt and pepper in ours; everything to taste. P.S.-One of Andy's greatest attributes is his guacamole making skill. He is the master, folks.

Now you can start assembling! Toast some thick slices of wheat bread (or whichever bread you prefer), and add your veggies, lettuce, burger, salsa of your choice (we used Kroger brand organic tomotilla salsa and it was AWESOME), and your guacamole.

How good does that look!? These are totally easy to customize, and make for the perfect Summer meal; very little fuss involved, doods.

Try this spin on a Summer classic for your next dinner party or cookout. Or, for your anniversary that you totally did not mean to forget about. Jeesh.

Enjoy!
