The Dish: Fozzie's Black Bean Burger

CONTRIBUTOR’S PICK: Laura Ann Miller

My idea of the ultimate vegetarian burger is the black bean burger from Fozzie’s Sandwich Emporium.

Its housemade black bean patty is topped with field greens, roasted peppers, caramelized onions and roasted garlic mayo and is served on a whole-wheat bun. The texture is perfect. It’s not too spicy but not too mild. It fills you up. And, best of all, it stands the true test of any veggie burger – it’s even great without cheese! You can add cheese if you’d like, but the great flavor holds up well on its own.

And be sure to get Fozzie’s homemade chips as a side to this mouth-watering burger.
