Sweet Potato Black Bean Burger

I LOVE a good veggie burger. Especially when it’s filled with some of my favorite ingredients like sweet potatoes, quinoa and black beans. Can’t get much better than that.

Oh wait – yes, it can.

Add a huge shmear of chili lime mayo and NOW it can’t get any better. ?
