Black Bean Cakes I Made It

Black Bean Cakes

I browsed Kimmers recipes after Frankie posted those chicken nuggets and found this! Had all the ingredients too! I cut back and only used about half a can of black beans since I was only making this for myself. Eyeballed all the ingredients and I cut back on the bread crumbs, which I wish I had NOT! The cakes barely stayed together and I know that's why. I managed to get them to look pretty good though just scooting them back together after flipping. These have such great flavor! The crunch from the crushed up tortilla chips (I used blue corn) was nice! Served topped with tomatoes that I tossed with some hot pepper sauce and salt, and some green onions.

The tortilla chips on the outside got really nice and crunchy, I think that was my favorite part!

Hey, ml2c, just noticed that the recipe said to heat through. How long did you end up cooking yours for?

I cooked them between med and med high for about 2-3 minutes a side. They were well warmed and any longer the tortilla coating would have burned...

Haha I did use the cilantro Mr. P and loved it ;)

I actually don't have a new camera yet, Mr. Ml2c is being a very big procrastinator on picking one out. I have been getting more and more comfortable with photo shop though but since my phone has no macro I'm still having trouble with the slight blurriness I can't seem to get rid of....so aggravating!

Mr ML2C's not being a procrastinator. We guys dont do that. We just want to make sure you get the very best : ) And when we leave dishes in the sink, its becasue they need to soak : ) And we dont know how to use a washer machine. Dont understand why ya cant toss all the colors and whites together to save time. : ) : )
