While meat lovers look forward to a Memorial Day barbecue, many people might be looking for a vegetarian option.
With their high protein content, black beans lend meaty substance to veggie burgers. Too often, though, the patties turn to mush. So for this recipe from our book “Cook What You Have,” which draws on pantry staples to assemble easy, weeknight meals, we went looking for ways to improve their texture. The answer was three-fold.
First, we only mash the beans coarsely so that when combined with other ingredients, we’re not left with a smooth paste. Second, we incorporate a significant amount of quinoa — two-thirds of a cup to one 15½-ounce can of beans — to vary texture with little pops of the nutty, high-protein grain (though technically it’s a seed). And finally, we pan-fry the patties until browned and crisp.
To ensure they don’t fall apart, we don’t rinse the beans; the starchy liquid clinging to them helps bind the mixture. We also add egg and panko breadcrumbs, and chilling the formed patties in the refrigerator for 15 minutes firmed them up for easier flipping in the hot skillet.

So what is John Kerry eating?
AP has become nothing but a high pressure propaganda pump.

All protein is not created equal.
Vegetable protein does not contain the same essential amino acids as animal protein.
Joan Rivers said, “around my house ketchup is a vegetable”.
Vegetarian burger is a contradiction in definitions. I won’t eat bugs. And the veggies I eat look like veggies not ersatz meat. Let Michelle Obama eat a load of beans instead of her usual couple of pounds of waygu beef washed down with a lobster or two.

Very clever Twilight Zone episode.
Think about it, though. If you have the technology to cross the universe, couldn’t you find better ways of feeding yourself?
If the new term, "Nazi-adjacent" is actually a thing, then this stance is Hitler-the-Vegetarian-adjacent.

“I like mine with lettuce and tomato, Heinz 57 and French fried potatoes, big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer...”
"To serve man" is in fact the message all those "public servants" and authoritarian thinkers and activists say they are doing. To "serve" us.
When, of course they are not saving the earth, the whales and such. And their beach houses in Martha's Vineyard, and Hawaii and so on. "To serve man" is quite the same as "I'm from the government, here to help...." Yum.
Where’s the beef?
