Black bean burger, coastal style πŸŒŠπŸ”πŸ’š

@actualveggies black bean burger definitely lives up to the hype, I'm so glad I tried it! Expertly seasoned. No oil. Easily air fried. Preheated the air fryer to 400F, air fried 4 mins on one side and 5 mins on the other (1 minute more than the instructions).

I cook quite a bit of what I eat, but I'm REALLY glad to see options like this hit the stores. Veggie burgers are among my least favorite things to make from scratch. They're never consistent and always taste off when I make them.

For this, I went for a bit of a coastal prep, which goes surprisingly well with this patty (note: not the Maine coast, that's a different tartar sauce πŸ€—). I went for a hit tangy/citrusy Baja Tartar Sauce... all plant-based and oil-free:

Toasted roll
Black bean burger patty
Shredded iceberg lettuce
Baja tartar sauce
Red onion
Two dill pickles

πŸ“Œ Baja Tartar Sauce πŸŒŠπŸ˜‹
Β½ cup mayonnaise (I used @mcdougallmom mayo, this brings some important citrus notes)
2 tbsp dill pickle, finely chopped
4 tsp green onion, thinly sliced
Β½ tbsp drained capers, minced
Β½ tsp dry parsley
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
Β½ tsp Dijon mustard
ΒΌ teaspoon dried tarragon
ΒΌ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
β…› teaspoon hot pepper sauce like Crystal or Tabasco (12 drops)

This Baja Tartar Sauce is delish with air fries, too!!
