Slightly Spicy Black Bean Burger

I have to point out that I love cooking with the food processer, although I hate cleaning it, it does all the dirty work and it's usually one of the only things that's needed in prep, this recipe you also need a bowl, but still simple. And quick! I topped with tempeh bacon (first time I tried it and it was a little too salty for me, but your gonna have to make that decision on your own, it's worth trying once) and vegan sliced mozz, lettuce and tomato. I put it on home made rolls, dinner rolls that I made extra large just for this purpose. These burgers were yummy, but tasted like puried black beans, so you will have to enjoy the taste of black beans to enjoy these.
