Black Bean Burger Mix Can, Certified Gluten Free, Emergency Food Supply, Everyday Meals, 38 Servings

I had a box of unknown brand bean mix on the shelf for must be 20 years. I almost pitched it, but decided to open the box. Contents looked good, smelled good, and directions only called for water, so nothing to lose to try to prepare!! Well, I was amazed. Having eaten those burgers, I purchased this can of black bean burger mix on Amazon. It is economical (about 40 cents a burger). It is also very versatile. I do recommend adding egg and bread crumbs to make a burger that stays together better, but otherwise these are perfect meals and perfect for emergency prep with long shelf life. And as far as emergency food, it is a plus that you only NEED water to have a decent nutritious meal. I also experimented with other uses. I recently mixed 1/2 cup of prepared bean mix with about 1/2 pound ground beef and egg and about 1/4 cup bread crumbs and made 4 HUGE burger patties - half bean and half beef. They were almost not distinguishable from a traditional quarter pounder. Could also mix in some chopped mushrooms. Totally delicious on a toasted bun with cheese and condiments. Half the calories and half the cost of a regular burger. I see great advantage to this mixture of bean and beef. Tonight I am using another 1/2 cup prepared bean mix plus 1/2 pound ground beef to make an Italian noodle casserole calling for browned ground beef crumbles, pepper, onion, mushroom, macaroni and tomato soup with cheese melted on top. Will see how the bean/beef mix performs in a casserole prep. I will continue to experiment with new uses for this. Very tasty, easy to use, economical. I will be buying this again for sure and highly recommend.

10.6.25~ Been "thinking" about trying this bean burger mix forever. But you know.. powdered food (how good can it be?) Oh so good that after ordering the pouch (finally) jumped in with both feet on the tin. I'd love to offer you some great tips but really Auguson has done it all for us. I take a pile of this great dehydrated veg & bean mix (more like onion soup than pancake mix)~ Add water and stir til it looks about the texture I'd want a burger, then pan fry no oil. Slider-sized burgers or falafel balls are best. Large burgers need a lid before flip to cook middle. The mix turns kind of reddish like real burgers or Beyond patties. The texture and plop of the patty is like a real burger. The crispy bottom is like a real burger. As someone whose been plant-based for a while it's nice to have options. This mix is so easy~I can be starving searching for food one minute~ and have a hot meal the next. So tasty it's as good my homemade ones without the chopping and mashing prep. Now I did pour the tin into a gallon ziploc, which it almost filled up. The lid is not airtight and the tin takes up a lot of limited cabinet space. Plus you can see all the ready to be devoured goodness. Click away with confidence my friends. These are deee-licious with pickles mayo and piles of onion on a bun. Or with a dollop of greek yogurt & avocado salsa over rice. Cheers & enjoy!

Wow. I’m blown away by how good it tastes. First I am not a vegetarian/vegan or anything like that or have ever tried anything vegetarian ect that I have liked. The only reason I bought it is because I’m taking a 6 month motorcycle camping trip and I’m trying to save money in the process and be able to prepare easy meals and save room on my motorcycle . I gave a piece of the burger I made to my parents and immediately they wanted me to order them some. I put ketchup on the side just in case but didn’t even use it. I do like black beans to begin with. They are very flavorful and I didn’t think they were that salty. I did use 6 tablespoons of water because I thought 3 was to dry.. I would compare the texture to salmon patties. Crunchy on the outside and softer in the middle. I still can’t believe how good it is. I bet it would be great in tacos. I’m going to keep buying this permanently and about to order a couple other foods they sell. Update. I made some burritos with it and my whole family liked them. I also bought another one and the spinach. Will be great for my motorcycle trip.

I decided this was a good price for daily usage so I got one can to try and another for storage. Certain members in the family are vegetarian so we need something that can please both crowds. We ended up using it sooner when a hurricane hit. On the first day we made this on a chafing dish with alcohol burners since the camp stove broke (our bad) so it was THAT easy to make. It was nice to have something filling and hot in our bellies specially with the next few days of hard work ahead us after the damage was done. The flavor is ok but it isn’t something that we would want to repeat eating daily, take this into consideration given the size of the can (it will last a whole year after opened and not looking forward to it). Thankfully our pantry allowed us to make other things. I’ve also tried adding more water and making it as sort of refried beans for burritos it was also good but we dont dream about it either. It definitely beats a lot of canned foods and even most MRIs we’ve tried in previous disasters. I saw others concerned about the salt level but I personally found that it was ok specially after cooked or with extra hydration for burritos. It certainly has spices but there’s no heat which was a nice surprise to us. You can always add hot sauce or peppers if you’re heat inclined. I also saw some people comment the mix came out too loose to make into patties first add a few less drops of water and second let the mix rest before forming and cooking it came out great that way for us.

Excelente servicio y pienso comprar más productos de esta calidad Gracias 🙏

Trying to keep a store cupboard for future use is harder when you dont eat wheat and are veggie. The reviews for those trying them was good so i have brought one 'just in case' for the future. This make in the UK is not that cheap and although i would like to buy other products cost would stop me on most of them, however i did work out how much each burger would roughly cost and decided it wasnt to bad so took the plunge. Came reasonably quickly and well packaged, now sitting in my store cupboard for the future! The 4 star is for what i got, cant give 5 as havent tried it, if i open now will defeat the purpose. Just hoping when i use it they taste as good as they say!
