We like to eat meatless at least one day a week, so I always keep cans of various beans in the pantry for quick-to-prepare meals like this. —Deborah Biggs, Omaha, Nebraska

This was better than I expected. My meat eating husband ate all of his and said it wasn't bad. If I make it again I might add some taco seasoning to the burger mixture to jazz it up a little bit.
