Bean Burgers

This is originally Celia Brooks Brown´s recipe, although we've altered It a bit. We had the burgers with some potato wedges + home made buns, tomato, cheese, lettuce, rucola, fried onion, jalapenos, kermaviili (mayo would do too) and ketchup. Guacamole or a home-made salsa is also an excellent addition to these burgers.
